Actually I had only looked at pci_get_legacy_ide_irq() and I'm pretty sure it's
only needed for ISAPNP. I had missed the fact that pcibios_penalize_isa_irq()
is used in other places as well, but it makes sense that it's also not needed,
since we don't have legacy ISA IRQs.

Ok. Please ask if you have more questions about that. It's definitely a complex
topic.

Hmm, this is a serious issue, and I don't have a good idea for how
to solve it yet, we need to discuss it some more I think.

We are currently working on generic PCI support for ARM64 with DT, which
will be based around the concept that all PCI host drivers can be loadable
modules, and each host driver would supply its own config space access
method.

With ACPI, we probably don't need the flexibility, because hopefully all
PCI host bridges will be SBSA compliant and have a regular ECAM config
space implementation (as opposed to the proprietary methods used by
e.g. APM X-Gene, Samsung GH7 or everything we have on ARM32).

If we can rely on always having ECAM support available, it would be
easy enough to add an implementation of that specifically for ACPI,
outside of the architecture code or the PCI core, or we could have
a global implementation of that, which gets used by both ACPI and
the compliant PCI host bridge drivers and can be built-in even for
loadable host drivers.

Alternatively, you could try to see if it's possible to defer the PCI
access to the time the host driver is loaded. Do you know what the access
to config space is actually needed for?
