Gavin Shan 387bbc974f powerpc/eeh: Enable IO path on permanent error
We give up recovery on permanent error, simply shutdown the affected
devices and remove them. If the devices can't be put into quiet state,
they spew more traffic that is likely to cause another unexpected EEH
error. This was observed on "p8dtu2u" machine:

   0002:00:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM Device 03dc
   0002:01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation \
                Ethernet Controller X710/X557-AT 10GBASE-T (rev 02)
   0002:01:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation \
                Ethernet Controller X710/X557-AT 10GBASE-T (rev 02)
   0002:01:00.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation \
                Ethernet Controller X710/X557-AT 10GBASE-T (rev 02)
   0002:01:00.3 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation \
                Ethernet Controller X710/X557-AT 10GBASE-T (rev 02)

On P8 PowerNV platform, the IO path is frozen when shutdowning the
devices, meaning the memory registers are inaccessible. It is why
the devices can't be put into quiet state before removing them.
This fixes the issue by enabling IO path prior to putting the devices
into quiet state.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
