Occasionaly PV guests would crash with:
pciback 0000:00:00.1: Xen PCI mapped GSI0 to IRQ16
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000d1a8c0be0

which was the result of two things:
When we call pci_scan_root_bus we would pass in 'sd' (sysdata)
pointer which was an 'pcifront_sd' structure. However in the
pci_device_add it expects that the 'sd' is 'struct sysdata' and
sets the dev->node to what is in sd->node (offset 4):
set_dev_node(&dev->dev, pcibus_to_node(bus));
__pcibus_to_node(const struct pci_bus *bus)
{
const struct pci_sysdata *sd = bus->sysdata;
return sd->node;
}
However our structure was pcifront_sd which had nothing at that
offset:
struct pcifront_sd {
int domain; /* 0 4 */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
struct pcifront_device * pdev; /* 8 8 */
}
That is an hole - filled with garbage as we used kmalloc instead of
kzalloc (the second problem).
This patch fixes the issue by:
1) Use kzalloc to initialize to a well known state.
2) Put 'struct pci_sysdata' at the start of 'pcifront_sd'. That
way access to the 'node' will access the right offset.
