iMX6qsabresd pci express to pci compatibility

Hello all,
I wanto to try to interface our custom canbus board which has a PCI interface with the imx6 sabre sd board, which has a mini-pciEx connector.
We bought a simple converter from miniPci express to 2x PCI slots.
This converter have a PLX PEX8112 Bridge and the producer is amfeltec.
You can see the product here:
http://www.amfeltec.com/products/minipcie-to-pci-adapter.php

Do you know if this solution is already supported by the fsl bsp (dora branch) ?
Or maybe we have to do some work?

Thanks
Simone

Hi Simone,
I also have done a quick test using an Atheros Wifi PCI/e just to see if 
it worked with my i.MX6Q. And the kernel saw it.

In your case, looks like the kernel 3.0.35 may already support your device
