Certain platforms like TI's J721E using Cadence PCIe IP can perform only
32-bit accesses for reading or writing to Cadence registers. Convert all
read and write accesses to 32-bit in Cadence PCIe driver in preparation
for adding PCIe support in TI's J721E SoC.
Looking more closely I don't think cdns_pcie_ep_assert_intx is okay
with this and never can be given the PCI_COMMAND and PCI_STATUS
registers are in the same word (IIRC, that's the main reason 32-bit
config space accesses are broken). So this isn't going to work at
right, PCI_STATUS has write '1' to clear bits and there's a chance that it
could be reset while raising legacy interrupt. While this cannot be avoided for
TI's J721E, other platforms doesn't have to have this limitation.
least for EP accesses. And maybe you need a custom .raise_irq() hook
to minimize any problems (such as making the RMW atomic at least from
the endpoint's perspective).
This is to make sure EP doesn't update in-consistent state when RC is updating
the PCI_STATUS register? Since this involves two different systems, how do we
make this atomic?

Thanks
Kishon
