Ok.

Ok, I was just looking at the wrong file, as they are set up from
common.c, not pci.c.

Ah, I thought all the DT users were moved to mach-mvebu. I agree
this new patch isn't introducing anything we don't already have then,
so we can just take it, but the conversion will not be nice when
we do that.

I was also hoping that we could get to the point where pci_common_init()
is only used for legacy machines without DT and without multiplatform,
it seems I missed a couple of users here.
