Liz Fong-Jones d58384c227 PCI: Fix BAR resize for devices on a root bus
pci_do_resource_release_and_resize() releases device BARs that share a
bridge window with the BAR being resized, but when the device sits directly
on a root bus (pdev->bus->self == NULL) it then skips resource assignment
entirely and returns success, leaving the BARs it just released unassigned
(IORESOURCE_UNSET).

Skipping pbus_reassign_bridge_resources() is correct in that case -- there
is no bridge window to adjust -- but the device BARs still have to be
reassigned. Before the BAR release was consolidated into the PCI core, this
case worked for amdgpu because the driver released the BARs itself and then
called pci_assign_unassigned_bus_resources() unconditionally after the
resize, which assigns unassigned device BARs also on a root bus. Commit
db92e3fef5 ("drm/amdgpu: Remove driver side BAR release before resize")
removed that call, so nothing assigns the released BARs anymore.

This breaks amdgpu completely on the SolidRun HoneyComb LX2K (NXP LX2160A,
arm64, ACPI), where ACPI doesn't expose the Root Port so the GPU endpoint
appears directly on a "root bus" of its segment:

  amdgpu 0004:01:00.0: BAR 0 [mem 0xa400000000-0xa40fffffff 64bit pref]: releasing
  amdgpu 0004:01:00.0: BAR 2 [mem 0xa410000000-0xa4101fffff 64bit pref]: releasing
  amdgpu 0004:01:00.0: sw_init of IP block <gmc_v8_0> failed -19
  amdgpu 0004:01:00.0: amdgpu_device_ip_init failed
  amdgpu 0004:01:00.0: Fatal error during GPU init

No error is logged because the resize path reports success; amdgpu then
finds BAR 0 IORESOURCE_UNSET and bails out with -ENODEV.

When there is no upstream bridge, call pci_bus_assign_resources() on the
root bus to place the BARs released above, using the same alignment-sorted
algorithm as normal enumeration instead of a manual per-BAR loop. This also
walks the rest of the hierarchy under the root bus, as
pci_assign_unassigned_bus_resources() used to for amdgpu before commit
db92e3fef5 ("drm/amdgpu: Remove driver side BAR release before resize")
removed that call -- the core-side fix that commit asked for ("such a
problem should be fixed inside pci_resize_resource() instead").

pci_bus_assign_resources() returns void, so failure is detected by checking
whether the released BARs are still assigned afterward; if not, roll back
as in the bridged case. This is stricter than the bridged path -- it fails
on any unplaced resource, not just required ones -- since a root bus
typically has one shared window, and failing loudly seemed better than
leaving something silently unassigned.

The root bus path also had a locking bug that any fix here necessarily
touches: the old "goto out" jumped to up_read(&pci_bus_sem) without a
matching down_read() (as does the "goto restore" taken when
pci_dev_res_add_to_list() fails in the release loop). Take pci_bus_sem
before the BAR release loop so every path through the function holds it
exactly once.
