PCIe host controller in Tegra SoCs has 1GB of aperture available

256MB is being reserved for mapping end points configuration space

on some of the platforms.
This patch series attempts to use only 4K space from 1GB aperture to
access end points configuration space.

Currently, this change benefits T20 and T186 in saving (i.e. repurposed
to use for BAR mapping) physical space as well as kernel virtual mapping space,
it saves only kernel virtual address space in T30, T124, T132 and T210.

NOTE: Both driver and DT changes are inter-dependent and hence need to go together
You are breaking compatibility with any other OS.

Can't this easily be solved within the kernel by adjusting the
resource size? To save the virtual space, you only need patch 1 and
don't need the DT change. The DT change is just for phys address space
for BARs.
In case of T20 & T186, DT change is required to re-purpose address space which otherwise is used for config space mapping to map BARs. In case of other chips, DT changes are also required because the 4K being used for mapping config space is taken from the last 4K chunk of 256MB instead of first 4K chunk to align with driver change.
Testing Done on T124, T210 & T186:
  Enumeration and basic functionality of immediate devices
  Enumeration of devices behind a PCIe switch
  Complete 4K configuration space access
