This CL has changes that allow us to enable a configurable
ramstage, and one change that allows us to minimize PCI
scanning. Minimal scanning is a frequently requested feature.
To enable it, we add two new variables to src/Kconfig
CONFIGURABLE_RAMSTAGE
is the overall variable controlling other options for minimizing the
ramstage.
MINIMAL_PCI_SCANNING is how we indicate we wish to enable minimal
PCI scanning.
Some devices must be scanned in all cases, such as 0:0.0.
To indicate which devices we must scan, we add a new mandatory
keyword to sconfig
It is used in place of on, off, or hidden, and indicates
a device is enabled and mandatory. Mandatory
devices are always scanned. When MINIMAL_PCI_SCANNING is enabled,
ONLY mandatory devices are scanned.
We further add support in src/device/pci_device.c to manage
both MINIMAL_PCI_SCANNING and mandatory devices.
Finally, to show how this works in practice, we add mandatory
keywords to 3 devices on the qemu-q35.
