mainlining shenanigans

On Mehlow Xeon-E workstation, ISH PCI device is enabled but without ISH firmware. Here the ISH device PCI device id was reused for some non Linux storage drivers. So this was not done for enabling ISH. But this has a undesirable side effect for Linux. Here the ISH driver will be loaded via PCI enumeration and will try to do reset sequence. But reset sequence will wait till timeout as there is no real ISH firmware is present to take action. This delay will add to boot time of Linux (This platform will still continue to boot after this timeout). To avoid this boot delay we need to prevent loading of ISH drivers on this platform. So we need to have hack to avoid treating this device as ISH on this platform. To identify this workstation, we need some runtime method. Luckily there are special PCI id on this workstation to distinguish from the client version of this platform. On client version, the ISH is supported using same PCI device id. So this change look for the presence of PCI device IDs A309 and A30A and exit.

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
