It is like most of the the other new drivers, each mvebu_pcie_probe
expects to create a new domain with a unique bus number set for that
platform_device. AFAIK everything is uniq'd to the struct mcebu_pcie,
so there is nothing precluding the driver from being instantiated
twice.
Indeed, the way mvebu hardware works you could actually create a DT
that assigned some ports to one domain and some other ports to a
different domain, using two platform_devices. All that was missing
from the driver was to increment the domain number.
I think Lorenzo's patches improve this, at least it appears that
unique domain numbers are now being assigned, I'm not sure - I'm a
little confused how we can safely blindly apply the new domain logic
without the driver opt'ing in....
I thought older PCI platforms tended to call pci_common_init for each
physical PCI bus, and we don't want them to suddenly have non-zero
domain numbers??
