PCI: add some sysfs ABI docs
Add sysfs ABI docs for driver entries bind, unbind and new_id. These entries are pretty old, from 2.6.0 onwards AFAIK, so this documents current behaviour.

Description:
|
||||||
|
Writing a device location to this file will cause
|
||||||
|
the driver to attempt to bind to the device found at
|
||||||
|
this location. This is useful for overriding default
|
||||||
|
bindings. The format for the location is: DDDD:BB:DD.F.
|
||||||
|
That is Domain:Bus:Device.Function and is the same as
|
||||||
|
found in /sys/bus/pci/devices/. For example:
|
||||||
|
# echo 0000:00:19.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/bind
|
||||||
|
(Note: kernels before 2.6.28 may require echo -n).

Description:
|
||||||
|
Writing a device ID to this file will attempt to
|
||||||
|
dynamically add a new device ID to a PCI device driver.
|
||||||
|
This may allow the driver to support more hardware than
|
||||||
|
was included in the driver's static device ID support
|
||||||
|
table at compile time. The format for the device ID is:
|
||||||
|
VVVV DDDD SVVV SDDD CCCC MMMM PPPP. That is Vendor ID,
|
||||||
|
Device ID, Subsystem Vendor ID, Subsystem Device ID,
|
||||||
|
Class, Class Mask, and Private Driver Data. The Vendor ID
|
||||||
|
and Device ID fields are required, the rest are optional.
|
||||||
|
Upon successfully adding an ID, the driver will probe
|
||||||
|
for the device and attempt to bind to it. For example:
|
||||||
|
# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/new_id
