PCI: Dynamically map ECAM regions
Attempting to boot 32-bit ARM kernels under QEMU's 3.x virt models fails
when we have more than 512M of RAM in the model as we run out of vmalloc
space for the PCI ECAM regions. This failure will be silent when running
libvirt, as the console in that situation is a PCI device.
In this configuration, the kernel maps the whole ECAM, which QEMU sets up
for 256 buses, even when maybe only seven buses are in use. Each bus uses
1M of ECAM space, and ioremap() adds an additional guard page between
allocations. The kernel vmap allocator will align these regions to 512K,
resulting in each mapping eating 1.5M of vmalloc space. This means we need
384M of vmalloc space just to map all of these, which is very wasteful of
resources.
Fix this by only mapping the ECAM for buses we are going to be using. In
my setups, this is around seven buses in most guests, which is 10.5M of
vmalloc space - way smaller than the 384M that would otherwise be required.
This also means that the kernel can boot without forcing extra RAM into
highmem with the vmalloc= argument, or decreasing the virtual RAM available
to the guest.
