Thanks to all of you for the investigation. So if I summarize your
findings, we have two patches needed to fix the problems of everybody:
1) The bug fix for the MSI teardown function in irq-armada-370-xp.c.
This one is easy, I'll test it right now, and give my formal
Acked-by soon.
2) The problem of non-power of 2 sized windows. This one is more
complicated, as we cannot simply round up the size of the windows
inside the pci-mvebu.c driver: the Linux PCI core is not aware of
this rounding, and might therefore allocate a BAR for the next
device at an address that overlaps the previous window we have
enlarged to match the power of two size requirement. This is
something that was already discussed with the PCI maintainers, but
the discussion needs to be revived I guess.
Am I correct, or are other patches needed, or are remaining problems
not solved by these two fixes?
Thomas
