It's clearly a question of perspective: The way I see it, this is not a driver at all, but a quirk for the acpi-pci driver, and having hardware specific code shared between the two complicates things. In both cases (xgene and hisi), only a very small portion of PCI host driver is needed as for the ACPI quirk, while all of the hardware specific setup can be left to the firmware here.
