I found some possible problems when testing with the Cadence EP driver.  The 
problem
is that pcitest uses the BARs for tests, but we also use one for the MSI-X 
tables

In Cadence core the MSI-X table is in BAR0 by default, but this is configured 
to a size
of 0x80 in the test driver, since it is used as the test_reg_bar.  So, I 
changed the 
configuration to use BAR4 instead, which is configured to a size of 131072 
in pci-efp-test.c, and this gives me enough space.

However, if I run the BAR tests in pcitest before running the MSI-X tests, the
MSI-X tests fail, since the BAR content is overwritten.  It's not a problem 
with the 
scenario in pcitest.sh, but it would be if the module wasn't re-loaded.

So, wondering if we need to come up with some mechanism to specify that a 
specific
BAR will be used for MSI-X, and that its size and content shouldn't be modified 
by
pcitest?

Regards,
Alan
