To support testing of PCI/PCIe drivers in UML, add a PCI bus support driver. This driver uses virtio, which in UML is really just vhost-user, to talk to devices, and adds the devices to the virtual PCI bus in the system. Since virtio already allows DMA/bus mastering this really isn't all that hard, of course we need the logic_iomem infrastructure that was added by a previous patch. The protocol to talk to the device is has a few fairly simple messages for reading to/writing from config and IO spaces, and messages for the device to send the various interrupts (INT#, MSI/MSI-X and while suspended PME#). Note that currently no offical virtio device ID is assigned for this protocol, as a consequence this patch requires defining it in the Kconfig, with a default that makes the driver refuse to work at all. Finally, in order to add support for MSI/MSI-X interrupts, some small changes are needed in the UML IRQ code, it needs to have more interrupts, changing NR_IRQS from 64 to 128 if this driver is enabled, but not actually use them for anything so that the generic IRQ domain/MSI infrastructure can allocate IRQ numbers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
