PCI: Expose PCI VPD through sysfs
Vital Product Data (VPD) may be exposed by PCI devices in several
ways. It is generally unsafe to read this information through the
existing interfaces to user-land because of stateful interfaces.
This adds:
- abstract operations for VPD access (struct pci_vpd_ops)
- VPD state information in struct pci_dev (struct pci_vpd)
- an implementation of the VPD access method specified in PCI 2.2
(in access.c)
- a 'vpd' binary file in sysfs directories for PCI devices with VPD
operations defined
It adds a probe for PCI 2.2 VPD in pci_scan_device() and release of
VPD state in pci_release_dev().
