This seems awkward to me in the case where the quirk is SoC-based and there
may be multiple platforms affected. Needing a DECLARE_ACPI_MCFG_FIXUP for
each platform using such a SoC (i.e. Mustang and Moonshot) doesn't seem
right. In that case, I think it'd be better to check CPUID and possibly
some SoC register to cover all platforms affected.
Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to connect a given quirk check to the
MCFG/device requesting the ops. So if there is a platform with multiple PCIE
roots and not all of them have quirks, how does one no whether to override the
default ecam ops?
