Rework the PE allocation logic to allow allocating blocks of PEs rather than individually. We'll use this to allocate contigious blocks of PEs for the SR-IOVs. This patch also adds code to pnv_ioda_alloc_pe() and pnv_ioda_reserve_pe() to use the existing, but unused, phb->pe_alloc_mutex. Currently these functions use atomic bit ops to release a currently allocated PE number. However, the pnv_ioda_alloc_pe() wants to have exclusive access to the bit map while scanning for hole large enough to accomodate the allocation size.

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.
