Well since the kernel doesn't support Leon/PCI yet you still have
an opportunity to "fix" this.

This is going to create an enormous huge inconsistency between
Leon and other SPARC PCI implementations, so please avoid this
special case.

Create the device tree nodes, via whatever means possible, and that
way you won't have to implement anything special in the kernel.

I'm not applying these patches.
