This patch is heavily based on the updated version from Jayachandran C:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/11/908
git: https://github.com/jchandra-brcm/linux/ (arm64-acpi-pci-v3)

This is a little bit unusual because I had not posted the v3 patch
to the mailing list yet, but you posted a variant of it The git
repository
should not be in the commit comment because it is a temporary location.

We all agree this too important for everybody to delay this series. So
main motivation is to keep all discussion&patches within one unified
series. I would like to finally find direction we need to go. Stating
another discussion based on my previous patch set v5 confused people,
they do no know who is driving this. Again, lets cooperate to move it
forward within one patch set.

We need one person in the driver's seat here for this patch series. I
believe the intention is that this is Tomasz, with others cooperating
and assisting. The previous alternative patch series did serve to cause
confusion, and worse, they made it look like the ARM vendors can't work
together. That ends. Right now. I've raised this individually with each
of you (and with all of the other vendors), as well as inside Linaro.
There will be one person driving this, and everyone else will help.

As a quick update, since yesterday I have confirmed that several
different microarchitecture implementations (different PCIe) have tested
and validated this patch series. Those minimally include:

* Cavium Networks ThunderX
* Qualcomm Technologies Inc QDF2XXX
* AMD A1100 ("Seattle")

Another is working on testing over the weekend. Still waiting for an ARM
tested-by on Juno I think. I will personally be testing this and future
releases on all of the above mentioned hw.

Jon.
