I feel like it would have been easier if you replied to Bjorn's comments
directly in the thread instead of pasting them here (to a cover letter).


Please don't shoot the messenger, but I don't see any reply to (what I
assume is the biggest reason why Bjorn did not merge this series):

""
.cpu_addr_fixup() is a generic problem that affects dwc (dra7xx, imx6,
artpec6, intel-gw, visconti), cadence (cadence-plat), and now
apparently microchip.

I deferred these because I'm hoping we can come up with a more generic
solution that's easier to apply across all these cases.  I don't
really want to merge something that immediately needs to be reworked
for other drivers.
""

It should probably state in the cover letter how v9 addresses Bjorn's
concern when it comes to other PCI controller drivers, especially those
that are not DWC based.


Kind regards,
Niklas
