Add PCI_DEV_FLAGS_QUIET_PCI_REALIGN to pci_dev_flags and use it to
silent PCI realignment messages if the flag is turned on by a driver.

It doesn't explain "Why?"
Why the driver needs that?

Another approach is to increase level of the message. Would it be
accepted by you (in case Bjorn agrees)?

I would rather name it _NO_PCI_REALIGN_MSG

I meant _NO_REALIGN_MSG of course (PCI is already at the beginning).

As far as I'm concerned, we can just remove these messages completely.
I don't think there's any real value there.

I have written down the reason on the cover letter, but I concur on 
creating a second version of the patch's comment. Basically, all PCI 
resources on powerpc are printing out expected realignment messages 
which are flooding the systems logs.

Perhaps this would be better?
---
"Some architectures such as powerpc has aligned all of its PCI resources 
to its PAGE_SIZE during boot, thus the system logs will be flooded by 
expected realignment messages, which can be interpreted as a false 
positive for total PCI failure on the system.

[root@system user]# dmesg | grep -i disabling
[    0.692270] pci 0000:00:00.0: Disabling memory decoding and releasing 
memory resources
[    0.692324] pci 0000:00:00.0: disabling bridge mem windows
[    0.729134] pci 0001:00:00.0: Disabling memory decoding and releasing 
memory resources
[    0.737352] pci 0001:00:00.0: disabling bridge mem windows
[    0.776295] pci 0002:00:00.0: Disabling memory decoding and releasing 
memory resources
[    0.784509] pci 0002:00:00.0: disabling bridge mem windows
... and goes on for all PCI devices ...

Thus, this patch adds PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_REALIGN_MSG to pci_dev_flags and 
uses it to silent PCI realignment messages if the flag is turned on by a 
driver.

I concur on changing it to PCI_DEV_FLAGS_NO_REALIGN_MSG in a second 
version of the patchset.

After I found out that this was happening to all PCI devices on powerpc 
due to the __weak
pcibios_default_alignment() interface (necessary for VFIO passthrough 
and performance), I confess that this was my first approach to this 
matter; however I couldn't vouch the need of these messages on other 
architectures.

If there are no further concerns, I definitely prefer sending a second 
version of this patch only eliminating these messages and attesting the 
reason why.

Thank you very much for your review Bjorn,

Bjorn,

Awesome! A second version of this fix has been sent with a new title: 
"[PATCH, pci, v2] pci: Delete PCI disabling informational messages"
