Tested on AMCC Canyonlands eval board. Signed-off-by: Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>With 173 lines of code added, you could spend a paragraph in the patch description telling us why the patch is doing what it's doing the way it's doing it. Perhaps even tell us why it takes 173 new lines of code to do something that sounds pretty simple - tell us what the complexities you encountered were.
Actually, the patch just adds a backend to my little framework for dealing with 4xx PCIe, which basically is a boring piece of code filling registers with values mostly from the spec... nothing really fancy there. Cheers, Ben.
