    powerpc/pci: Fix get_phb_number() locking

    The recent change to get_phb_number() causes a DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
    warning on some systems:

      BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:580
      in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper

      [d101df30] [c001b334] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x64

    This is because pcibios_alloc_controller() holds hose_spinlock but
    of_alias_get_id() takes of_mutex which can sleep.

    The hose_spinlock protects the phb_bitmap, and also the hose_list, but
    it doesn't need to be held while get_phb_number() calls the OF routines,
    because those are only looking up information in the device tree.

    So fix it by having get_phb_number() take the hose_spinlock itself, only
    where required, and then dropping the lock before returning.
    pcibios_alloc_controller() then needs to take the lock again before the
    list_add() but that's safe, the order of the list is not important.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
