I don't agree arm32 is harder than microblaze. Yes, converting ALL of
arm would be, but that is not necessary. With Liviu's latest branch
the hacks I previously needed are gone (thanks!), and this is all I
need to get Versatile PCI working (under QEMU):

I meant converting all of arm32 would be harder, but I agree we don't
have to do it. It would be nice to convert all of the drivers/pci/host
drivers though, iow all multiplatform-enabled ones, and leaving the
current arm32 pci implementation for the platforms we don't want to
convert to multiplatform anyway (footbridge, iop, ixp4xx, ks8695 (?),
pxa, sa1100).

I'm more than happy to convert the generic host controller we merged
recently, but I'd probably want the core changes merged first so that I
know I'm not wasting my time!
