Can you mention the specific ACPI tables here in the commit log?

Maybe elaborate on the "for those that need it" bit?  I'm not sure if
you need it for the cases where DT or ACPI tells us directly for the
host bridge, or if you need it for the more selective cases?

I guess in one sense you *always* need it since you check the cached
bit later.

I don't understand the implications of this, especially the selective
situation.  Given your comment from the first posting, I thought this
was a property of the host bridge, so I don't know what it means to
say some devices support ATS but others don't.
