Hi Dacai,
Sorry for delayed response. I do not work directly with PCIe these
days. Please always keep PCI mailing list in CC.

I just had a quick look on current state of designware driver and
Liviu's V10 patchset.
As a first step,
There would be couple of things which we need to get rid of DW
driver, before it is usable with generic pci support.
-- Replace pci_common_init_dev with following:
dw_pcie_setup
pci_scan_root_bus (should help in getting rid of dw_pcie_scan_bus)
-- Get rid of 'struct hw_pci dw_pci' and 'sys_to_pcie(struct
pci_sys_data *sys)'
-- in order to get rid of dw_pci, you might need
to add following for arch/arm, so that existing platform works:
pcibios_add_device : (should help in getting rid of dw_pcie_map_irq)
-- of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources can be used (may be with some
modification) to cleanup most of the code of dw_pcie_host_init.
-- Above should help in working with intx. To use msi, I think you might
need to work on core layer a bit. One easiest way, could be to modify
pci_scan_root_bus to accept struct msi_chip as additional argument and
assign msi_chip to bus->msi in this function.

I think Mohit/Jingoo can comment here. What I know, they do not have
ARM64 bit platform, so they might not be able to work for designware
patch on arm64. But yes, I agree that designware can be modified on
top of Liviu's patch to work with ARM 32 bit, while independent of
arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c code.
