    PCI: Update pcie_ports 'auto' behavior for non-ACPI platforms · 6b87e700
    Andrew Murray authored
    
    
    The pcie_ports parameter, which defaults to 'auto', allows a user
    to specify if PCIe port services are disabled ('compat'), always
    enabled ('native'), or only used when allowed by the BIOS
    ('auto').
    
    Where CONFIG_ACPI isn't enabled, as is often the case for non
    x86/ia64 platforms, the 'auto' behavior results in that of
    'compat'. Thus in order to use port services on these platforms
    'pcie_ports=native' must be added to the kernel command line.
    
    This patch results in the 'native' behavior being followed where
    'auto' is selected and ACPI is not enabled.
