Maybe we can instead leave out the PCI support from the new
file for now and not delete the legacy board file?
This seems a reasonable compromise. The PCI card the router comes
with isn't supported by mwl8k mainline anyway (There's STA-only
firmware that can be extracted from a windows driver and PCI IDs
added, but stats reporting uses a different format), so it's not a
huge loss, although many did replace the card with something
Atheros-based.
O.K. So dropping the PCI code gets us going forward.
Have we missed the merge window?
Unfortunately the power regulator on my spare router has stopped
regulating, which will make more development tricky.

Jamie, which interrupt do you see the WiFi card using?  If it is
IRQ_ORION5X_PCIE0_INT, (1 + 11), that is probably easier to deal with
than if it uses GPIO 4.
Definitely uses GPIO 4.
O.K, that makes it more interesting. As far as i can see, no other
PCIe system uses a GPIO for its interrupt. There is no core support
for this, or any bus driver doing it. So there is no binding to
follow.
