The resource_alignment will releases memory resources allocated
by firmware so that kernel can reassign new resources later on.
But this will cause the problem that no resources can be
allocated by kernel if PCI_PROBE_ONLY was set, e.g. on pSeries
platform because PCI_PROBE_ONLY force kernel to use firmware
setup and not to reassign any resources.
To solve this problem, this patch ignores resource_alignment
if PCI_PROBE_ONLY was set.

Wouldn't it be simpler to make pci_set_resource_alignment_param() fail
if PCI_PROBE_ONLY is set?
I add the check here because I want to print some logs so that users
could know the reason why resource_alignment doesn't work when
they add this parameter.
Thanks,

Sorry, please ignore the previous reply. I didn't add this check in
pci_set_resource_alignment_param() because PCI_PROBE_ONLY
may be set after we parse "resource_alignment".
And it seems that printk_once() may be better here so that
we don't need to set *p = 0.
Thanks,
Yongji
