[PATCH] PCI: avoid NULL deref in alloc_pcie_link_state

[Radim KrÄmÃÅ]

PCIe switch can be connected directly to the PCIe root complex in QEMU;
ASPM does not expect this topology and dereferences NULL pointer when
initializing.

Downstream port can be also connected to the root complex without
upstream one, so code checks for both, otherwise they dereference NULL
on line drivers/pci/pcie/aspm.c:530 (alloc_pcie_link_state+13):
  		parent = pdev->bus->parent->self->link_state;
"pdev->bus->parent->self == NULL" if upstream port is connected directly
to the root bus and "pdev->bus->parent == NULL" in the second case.

v1 -> v2: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/19/753)
 - Initialization is aborted in pcie_aspm_init_link_state, where other
   special cases are being handled
 - pci_is_root_bus is used
 - Warning is printed

Reproducer for "downstream -- root" and "downstream -- upstream -- root"
(used qemu-kvm 1.5, q35 machine type might be missing on older ones)

  for parent in pcie.0 upstream; do
   qemu-kvm -m 128 -M q35 -nographic -no-reboot \
     -device x3130-upstream,bus=pcie.0,id=upstream \
     -device xio3130-downstream,bus=$parent,id=downstream,chassis=1 \
     -device virtio-blk-pci,bus=downstream,id=virtio-zero,drive=zero \
     -drive  file=/dev/zero,id=zero,format=raw \
     -kernel bzImage -append "console=ttyS0 panic=3" # pcie_aspm=off
  done

ASPM in QEMU works if we connect upstream through root port
  -device ioh3420,bus=pcie.0,id=root.0 \
  -device x3130-upstream,bus=root.0,id=upstream
