PCI/DPC: Add "pcie_ports=dpc-native" to allow DPC without AER control
Prior to eed85ff4c0da7 ("PCI/DPC: Enable DPC only if AER is available"),
Linux handled DPC events regardless of whether firmware had granted it
ownership of AER or DPC, e.g., via _OSC.
PCIe r5.0, sec 6.2.10, recommends that the OS link control of DPC to
control of AER, so after eed85ff4c0da7, Linux handles DPC events only if it
has control of AER.
On platforms that do not grant OS control of AER via _OSC, Linux DPC
handling worked before eed85ff4c0da7 but not after.
To make Linux DPC handling work on those platforms the same way they did
before, add a "pcie_ports=dpc-native" kernel parameter that makes Linux
handle DPC events regardless of whether it has control of AER.
[bhelgaas: commit log, move pcie_ports_dpc_native to drivers/pci/]
