powerpc/fsl-pci: Add a workaround for PCI 5 errata
Issue: As a master, the PCI IP block can combine a memory write to the last PCI double word (4 bytes) of a cacheline with a 4 byte memory write to the first PCI double word of the subsequent cacheline. This affects 32-bit PCI target devices that blindly assert STOP on memory-write transactions, without detecting that the data beat being transferred is the last data beat of the transaction. It can cause a hang. PCI-X operation is not affected by this erratum. Workaround: Setting the bit MDS in the PCI Bus Function Register will disable the combining of crossing cacheline boundary requests into one burst transaction. Therefore, it can prevent the errata scenario from occurring. This errata exists in MPC8543, MPC8543E, MPC8545, MPC8545E, MPC8547, MPC8547E, MPC8548 and MPC8548E. Refer to PCI 5 in MPC8548 errata document.
