I see. A simple bitmap to detect which windows are *actually*
programmed by the current kernel (that can be used by

iproc_pcie_ob_is_valid()

to carry out a valid check) would do as well instead of having to
invalidate all the OB registers.

It is up to you, let me know and I will merge code accordingly.
