Bjorn Helgaas 204d49a561 PCI hotplug: move IOAPIC support from acpiphp to ioapic driver
This patch moves PCI I/O APIC support from acpiphp to a separate driver.

Like pciehp and shpchp, acpiphp handles PCI hotplug, i.e., addition and
removal of PCI adapters.  But in addition, acpiphp handles some ACPI
hotplug, such as the addition of new host bridges, and the I/O APIC
support was tangled up with that.

I don't think the I/O APIC support needs to be in acpiphp; PCI I/O APICs
usually appear as a function on a PCI host bridge, and we'll enumerate the
APIC before any of the devices behind the bridge that use it.

As far as I know, nobody actually uses I/O APIC hotplug.  It depends on
acpi_register_ioapic(), which is only implemented for ia64, and I don't
think any vendors have supported I/O chassis hotplug yet.

bool "Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI and MSI-X)"
depends on PCI
depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI
help
This allows device drivers to enable MSI (Message Signaled
Interrupts). Message Signaled Interrupts enable a device to
generate an interrupt using an inbound Memory Write on its
PCI bus instead of asserting a device IRQ pin.
Use of PCI MSI interrupts can be disabled at kernel boot time
by using the 'pci=nomsi' option. This disables MSI for the
entire system.
If you don't know what to do here, say N.
config PCI_LEGACY
bool "Enable deprecated pci_find_* API"
depends on PCI
default y
help
Say Y here if you want to include support for the deprecated
pci_find_slot() and pci_find_device() APIs. Most drivers have
been converted over to using the proper hotplug APIs, so this
option serves to include/exclude only a few drivers that are
still using this API.
config PCI_DEBUG

depends on PCI && DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Say Y here if you want the PCI core to produce a bunch of debug
messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
problem with PCI support and want to see more of what is going on.
When in doubt, say N.
config PCI_STUB

Say Y or M here if you want be able to reserve a PCI device
when it is going to be assigned to a guest operating system.
When in doubt, say N.

This allows native hypertransport devices to use interrupts.
If unsure say Y.

I/O Virtualization is a PCI feature supported by some devices
which allows them to create virtual devices which share their
