Hi Bjorn

Many Thanks for your reply

I have commented back inline with resolutions from my side.

If you're ok with them I'll send it out a new version in the appropriate patchset

Cheers

sure agreed

Agreed, will change this

the user is: "[PATCH v5 2/5] PCI: designware: Add ARM64 support"
I will ask Zhou Wang to include this patch in his patchset

sure I can add comments inline in the code

Looking at the code I agree. it's seems to be used only in powerpc 
and microblaze to print out.
However from my understanding pci_space is the phys.hi field of the 
ranges property: it defines the properties of the address space associated
to the PCI address. if you're curious you can find a nice and quick to read
"guide" in http://devicetree.org/MPC5200:PCI

Yes, this is the PCI start address of the range: phys.mid + phys.low in the
guide mentioned above

Yes correct

According to the guide above, this is the address into which the pci_address 
get translated to and that is passed to the root complex. Between the root 
complex and the CPU there can be intermediate translation layers: see that to 
get pci_address we call "of_translate_address"; this will apply all the 
translation layers (ranges in the DT) that it finds till it comes to the root 
node of the DT (thus retrieving the CPU address).
Now said that, for designware we need the first translated PCI address, that we call
here bus_addr after Rob Herring suggested the name...honestly I cannot think of a 
different name
