Make your subject something like this so it matches previous practice:

  arm64: PCI: ...
Got it.
The "::" notation probably comes from C++, but doesn't really apply in
C.  In C, we would say "cfg.parent" or "cfg->parent".

But pci_config_window and cfg->parent are probably too low-level for
the subject anyway.  Seems like it should mention Hyper-V, for
instance.
I'm going to make the title something like:

   arm64: PCI: Support root bridge preparation for Hyper-V PCI

works for you? Also I will add comment inside the function as
explanation.

This is purely a hack, for ARM64 Hyper-V guest, there is no
corresponding ACPI device for the root bridge, so the best we can
provide is an all-zeroed pci_config_window, and in this case make
pcibios_root_bridge_prepare() act as the ACPI device is NULL.
Why is there no ACPI device?  Is this a needless arch dependency?  Or
is this related to using DT instead of ACPI?
For Hyper-V virtual PCI host bridges, neither DT or ACPI is used to
describe them, a hypervisor-specific mechanism (VMBus) is used to
enumerate PCI host bridges. So actually on x86, Hyper-V PCI host
bridge's ACPI companion is set as NULL.
The cover letter hints that this might be related to
PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC=y, but that doesn't sound like a very convincing
reason (and the cover letter can provide an overview, but the commit
logs of individual patches shouldn't assume knowledge of the cover
letter).
Ok, I will add a better explanation in the commit log in the next
version. Thanks!
