v4.4 doesn't have a build problem because commit 7c537c67d2e4 ensures
it doesn't get built on arm64. If we revert this commit, then there is a
build failure as the pci_ioremap_io() function is not available on arm64.
That's the build failure which "PCI: rcar: Convert to DT resource parsing API"
fixes.

Ok, yes that's the patch.

Correct.

The approach for all other drivers has been to keep these separate. There
are no changes to the dt bindings, it's just adding the node to the new
device and board, so there is no problem with ordering of these patches.
