Qian Wang 5d8f5023d0 HV: inject physical PCIEXBAR to SOS vhostbridge
hv: vpci: inject physical PCIEXBAR to SOS vhostbridge in
order to fully emulate a full host bridge following HW spec

The vhostbridge we emulate currently is a "Celeron N3350/
Pentium N4200/Atom E3900 Series Host Bridge", which is of
Appollo Lake SoC, but the emulation is incomplete, and
we need to implement a full vhostbridge following HW spec.

This is a step-by-step process, and in this patch we fixes
the simulation of PCIEXBAR register (0x60) and thus solved
bug #6464.

-------#6464: SOS cannot make use of ECAM---------------
Generally, SOS will check the MMIO Base Addr in ACPI MCFG
table to confirm it is a reserved memory area. There will
be 3 methods to check:
1. Via E820 table
2. Via EFI runtime service
3. To check with the value in PCIEXBAR(0x60) of hostbridge

For SOS, method 2 is not feasible since no EFI runtime service
is available for SOS. And on newer platform like EHL/TGL, its
BIOS somehow doesn't reserve it in native E820, thus SOS will
try use method 3 to verify, so we should inject physical ECAM
to vhostbridge, otherwise all 3 methods will fail, and SOS will
not make use of ECAM, which will results in that SOS cannot use
PCIe Extended Capabilities like SR-IOV.
-------------------------------------------------------

TODO:
1. In the future, we may add one or more virtual hostbridges for CPUs that are incompatible in layout with the current one, according to HW specs
2. Besides PCIEXBAR(0x60), there are also some registers needs to be emulated more precisely rather than be treated as read-only and hard-coded, will be fixed in future patches.
