Hi Lorenzo,
Apologies for the late reply, It's been really busy over here.

Fix this by initializing the RC to a subordinate value of 0xff, meaning
that all busses [0x00-0xff] are reachable through this RC.
This is not a correct description of the problem. AFAICS all busses
are reachable through this RC _regardless_ of whatever subordinate
bus number value you programme into it.
Noted.
This was written meaning: "as seen be the probing functions below"
I'll try harder in V2 to actually include the message that it's not a HW
related problem or influencing HW in any way, but really "tricking" the
probing functions below
You should extend the CC list to all dwc host submaintainers so
that you can actually get it tested.
How to figure out who to include? (& please provide who to include)
Reading online manuals on "how to send patches" only demo's
"get_maintainer.pl" script

Will send separate patches to stable as this file got moved/renamed
Fixes: commit appeared at v4.15-rc1 (and v4.15 has not been released
yet) - there is no separate patch to be sent.
This is something typical which is hard to learn/understand by just
reading "how to send patches" docs available everywhere. (like I did
before sending this one over ;-) )
2 questions basically:
- As the commit causing it was included in 4.15-*RC1*, do I need to add
a "Fixes; bla bla" at all?
- As the commit causing it was backported to 4.9, (how) should I send a
separate patch in order to get it fixed there? [0]
Thanks,
Lorenzo
Probably annoying questions triggering a 'sigh' .. but I'm lacking
experience here ..
Thanks for your time & patience so far,
Highly appreciated,
Koen
