The arm32 implementations of pci_domain_nr/pci_proc_domain can probably be
removed if we change the arm32 pcibios_init_hw function to call the new
interfaces that set the domain number.
I wished, but it is a bit more complicated than I thought unfortunately,
mostly because some drivers, eg cns3xxx set the domain numbers
statically in pci_sys_data and this sets a chain of dependency that is
not easy to untangle. I think cns3xxx is the only legacy driver that "uses"
the domain number (in pci_sys_data) in a way that clashes with the
generic domain_nr implementation, I need to give it more thought.
Just had a look at that driver, shouldn't be too hard to change, see below.

This patch is in my patchwork, but it lacks a topic & changelog and I'm not
sure of its state, so I'm going to drop it for now.  Please post it again
if you want me to do something with it.  I guess it only touches arch/arm,
so it would probably be merged via your tree anyway.
Lorenzo has posted an updated version as

"arm: cns3xxx: pci: remove artificial dependency on pci_sys_data domain",
and a second patch that depends on it. That is the version we should be
merging, though I'm not sure through which tree.
I am posting a v2 shortly, let's discuss the best way to merge it then.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
