Hi Lorenzo,

The Endpoint controller driver uses features member in 'struct pci_epc'
to advertise the list of supported features to the endpoint function
driver.

There are a few shortcomings with this approach.
*) Certain endpoint controllers support fixed size BAR (e.g. TI's
AM654 uses Designware configuration with fixed size BAR). The
size of each BARs cannot be passed to the endpoint function
driver.
*) Too many macros for handling EPC features.
(EPC_FEATURE_NO_LINKUP_NOTIFIER, EPC_FEATURE_BAR_MASK,
EPC_FEATURE_MSIX_AVAILABLE, EPC_FEATURE_SET_BAR,
EPC_FEATURE_GET_BAR)
*) Endpoint controllers are directly modifying struct pci_epc
members. (I have plans to move struct pci_epc to
drivers/pci/endpoint so that pci_epc members are referenced
only by endpoint core).

To overcome the above shortcomings, introduced pci_epc_get_features()
API, pci_epc_features structure and a ->get_features() callback.

Also added a patch to set BAR flags in pci_epf_alloc_space and
remove it from pci-epf-test function driver.

Changes from v1:
*) Fixed helper function to return '0' (or BAR_0) for any incorrect
values in reserved BAR.
*) Do not set_bar or alloc space for BARs if the BARs are reserved
*) Fix incorrect check of epc_features in pci_epf_test_bind

Tested on TI's DRA7xx platform and AM654 platform. Support for PCIe
in AM654 platform will be posted shortly.
