[ Upstream commit db04264fe9 ]
The SR-IOV spec requires that VFs must report zero for the INTx pin
register as VFs are precluded from INTx support. It's much easier for
the host kernel to understand whether a device is a VF and therefore
whether a non-zero pin register value is bogus than it is to do the
same in userspace. Override the INTx count for such devices and
virtualize the pin register to provide a consistent view of the device
to the user.
As this is clearly a spec violation, warn about it to support hardware
validation, but also provide a known whitelist as it doesn't do much
good to continue complaining if the hardware vendor doesn't plan to
fix it.
Known devices with this issue: 8086:270c

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.
