Unfortunately, no. The PCIe on Orion5x requires a workaround for
reading/writing the PCI configuration space. Instead of doing MMIO
accesses to PCIE_CONF_ADDR_OFF / PCIE_CONF_DATA_OFF, you must map a
MBus window, which provides a memory-mapped view of the PCI
configuration space.

Definitely not impossible to implement, but the driver doesn't work
as-is.

MBus windows are needed. See:

        mvebu_mbus_add_window_remap_by_id(ORION_MBUS_PCI_IO_TARGET,
                                          ORION_MBUS_PCI_IO_ATTR,
                                          ORION5X_PCI_IO_PHYS_BASE,
                                          ORION5X_PCI_IO_SIZE,
                                          ORION5X_PCI_IO_BUS_BASE);
        mvebu_mbus_add_window_by_id(ORION_MBUS_PCI_MEM_TARGET,
                                    ORION_MBUS_PCI_MEM_ATTR,
                                    ORION5X_PCI_MEM_PHYS_BASE,
                                    ORION5X_PCI_MEM_SIZE);

in orion5x_setup_wins().

Note that we already have some Orion5x converted to DT, and that use
PCI: board-rd88f5182.c is an example. So we could very well take Jamie
patches as-is, and move later to a DT-representation for PCI/PCIe.

Best regards,

Thomas
