I agree that it is a better solution in that case and in other cases
too. The problem will be for me to write a PCI Library in the limited
context of the PROM, it is much more complex that writing a PCI host
driver. The non-free PCI specification alone is heavy, compatibility
between PCI revisions and then there is the bridge
specification... ugg, I will probably have to leave that to the next
generation :)

I guess if it's really that bad we can merge your PCI changes for
now, please resubmit them.
Thanks, it means a lot to us.

Julian:
When I looked at this earlier, I was thinking that we might want to
introduce a new KConfig variable, maybe CONFIG_LEON_PCI, to hide all
this stuff behind so we don't have to do any complicated ifdefery or
change any existing ifdefs.

I will add a PCIC and a LEON_PCI Kconfig option that depends on !LEON/LEON and PCI, as julian/sam suggests. I'm busy at the moment with other stuff it a pity these problem wasn't brought forward until now, is the merge window open until the end of the week?

Thanks,
Daniel
