[PATCH v8 0/1] PCI: microchip: Add host driver for Microchip PCIe controller

[Daire.McNamara]

This v8 patch adds support for the Microchip PCIe PolarFire PCIe
controller when configured in host (Root Complex) mode.

Updates since v7:
* Build for 64bit RISCV architecture only

Updates since v6:
* Refactored to use common eCAM driver
* Updated to CONFIG_PCIE_MICROCHIP_HOST etc
* Formatting improvements
* Removed code for selection between bridge 0 and 1

Updates since v5:
* Fixed Kconfig typo noted by Randy Dunlap
* Updated with comments from Bjorn Helgaas

Updates since v4:
* Fix compile issues.

Updates since v3:
* Update all references to Microsemi to Microchip
* Separate MSI functionality from legacy PCIe interrupt handling functionality

Updates since v2:
* Split out DT bindings and Vendor ID updates into their own patch
  from PCIe driver.
* Updated Change Log

Updates since v1:
* Incorporate feedback from Bjorn Helgaas

The PCIe hardware is only available on 64-bit RISCV based platforms at the moment.  Our intention is to extend the driver, at a later date, as and when the hardware becomes available.

I'll let the actual PCIe maintainer speak, but normally we try to
allow drivers to build on all platforms unless they have an actual
code platform depency.  And as far as I can tell this driver doesn't
actually depend on RISC-V specific code.

Agreed; if the driver doesn't actually depend on interfaces that are
RISC-V-specific, we should be able to compile-test it on other arches.
