Most of the time, the state of a DRC object is contained in the single
'state' variable. However, during the transition from UNISOLATE to
CONFIGURED state requires multiple calls to the ibm,configure-connector
RTAS call to retrieve the device tree for the attached device. We need
some extra state to keep track of where we're up to in delivering the
device tree information to the guest.
Currently that extra state is in a sPAPRConfigureConnectorState
substructure which is only allocated when we're in the middle of the
configure connector process. That sounds like a good idea, but the extra
state is only two integers - on many platforms that will take up the same
room as the (maybe NULL) ccs pointer even before malloc() overhead. Plus
it's another object whose lifetime we need to manage. In short, it's not
worth it.
So, fold the sPAPRConfigureConnectorState substructure directly into the
DRC object.
Previously the structure was allocated lazily when the configure-connector
call discovers it's not there. Now, we need to initialize the subfields
pre-emptively, as soon as we enter UNISOLATE state.
Although it's not strictly necessary (the field values should only ever
be consulted when in UNISOLATE state), we try to keep them at -1 when in
other states, as a debugging aid.
