Now I have removed the dependency from designware but I still think the best location for the code is in "drivers/pci/host/": the ACPI quirks share the config read/write functions with the DT driver, moreover for other hosts in future I think it makes sense to stay in "drivers/pci/host/" as they could even share more init code with their respective DT versions...
I haven't really followed what is going on with ACPI. Do you expect to see future machines come out that are not just implementing SBSA but that still need to run ACPI? I thought this was just a hack for some early machines that only run with ACPI but are not actually compliant. Arnd
