Yes, I've been inactive for a while but I'm on it right now.

I'm using platform data currently, but Davide Ciminaghi is actively
working to convert the configuration to device-tree: the way we pass
platform data to the pci device (and thus amba) is not considered
acceptable by Peter Anvin.
I'm thus asking Davide if he's happy to remove the platform data
configuration path right now (I personally wouldn't be very happy, but
I acknowledge it should happen, sooner or later).
