dw_pcie_prog_ep_inbound_atu() is used to program an inbound iATU in "BAR Match Mode". A memory address returned by e.g. kmalloc() is guaranteed to have natural alignment (aligned to the size of the allocation). It is however not guaranteed that pci_epc_set_bar() (and thus dw_pcie_prog_ep_inbound_atu()) is supplied an address that has natural alignment. (An EPF driver can send in an arbitrary physical address to pci_epc_set_bar().) The DWC Databook description for the LWR_TARGET_RW and LWR_TARGET_HW fields in the IATU_LWR_TARGET_ADDR_OFF_INBOUND_i registers state that: "Field size depends on log2(BAR_MASK+1) in BAR match mode." I.e. only the upper bits are writable, and the number of writable bits is dependent on the configured BAR_MASK. Add a check to ensure that the physical address programmed in the iATU is aligned to the size of the BAR (BAR_MASK+1), as without this, we can get hard to debug errors, as we could write to bits that are read-only (without getting a write error), which could cause the iATU to end up redirecting to a physical address that is different from the address that we intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
