A lot of systems do not have the fancy buttons and LEDs, and instead
want to rely only on the Link state change events to drive the hotplug
and removal state machinery.
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/hotplug/msg05802.html)
This patch adds support for that functionality. Here are the details
about the patch itself:
* Define and use interrupt events for linkup / linkdown.
* Make the pcie_isr() also look at link events, and direct control to
corresponding (new) link state change handler function.
* Introduce the functions to handle link-up and link-down events and
queue the add / removal work in the slot->wq to be processed by
pciehp_power_thread()
As a side note, this patch also fixes the bug
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65521 "pciehp ignores Data Link
Layer State Changed bit."
