The kernel and its static data structures are no longer identity-mapped
in the bottom 8MB of the address space, but instead move above 3GB.
The first 8MB above 3GB are pseudo-identity-mapped to the bottom 8MB of
the physical address space. But things don't have to stay this way!
Thanks to Jesse who made an earlier attempt at this, it was really easy
to get device drivers working once the page tables were in place! :^)
Fixes#734.
The new PCI subsystem is initialized during runtime.
PCI::Initializer is supposed to be called during early boot, to
perform a few tests, and initialize the proper configuration space
access mechanism. Kernel boot parameters can be specified by a user to
determine what tests will occur, to aid debugging on problematic
machines.
After that, PCI::Initializer should be dismissed.
PCI::IOAccess is a class that is derived from PCI::Access
class and implements PCI configuration space access mechanism via x86
IO ports.
PCI::MMIOAccess is a class that is derived from PCI::Access
and implements PCI configurtaion space access mechanism via memory
access.
The new PCI subsystem also supports determination of IO/MMIO space
needed by a device by checking a given BAR.
In addition, Every device or component that use the PCI subsystem has
changed to match the last changes.
