Lorenzo,

A while back, you mentioned here (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/16/364) 
that the ARM32 pcibios_align_resource() implementation requires
pci_sys_data, so we _still_ rely on pci_common_init_dev to create one
for us. Is this still the case?

I am looking at the arch/arm32/kernel/bios32.c: pcibios_init_hw() and 
see that it setup the pci_sys_data.align_resource to 
hw_pci.align_resource (see here 
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c#L471).

However it seems that the hw_pci.align_resource is never setup in the 
pci-host-generic.c.  Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Suravee
