When building with clang 18 I see the following warning:
|       drivers/pci/controller/pcie-iproc-platform.c:55:15: warning: cast to smaller
|                integer type 'enum iproc_pcie_type' from 'const void *' [-Wvoid-pointer-to-enum-cast]
|          55 |         pcie->type = (enum iproc_pcie_type) of_device_get_match_data(dev);

This is due to the fact that `of_device_get_match_data` returns a void*
while `enum iproc_pcie_type` has the size of an int. This leads to
truncation and possible data loss.

Note: There is likely no data loss occurring here since `enum
iproc_pcie_type` has only a few fields enumerated from 0. Definitely not
enough to cause data loss from pointer-width to int-width.

This seems a little ugly on both ends: we have to cast the enum to
(int *) in the of_device_id table:

  static const struct of_device_id iproc_pcie_of_match_table[] = {
    {
      .compatible = "brcm,iproc-pcie",
      .data = (int *)IPROC_PCIE_PAXB,
    },

and then we have to cast it back to the the enum type here, and we
can't even use the actual enum type:

  pcie->type = (uintptr_t) of_device_get_match_data(dev);

I think this would be nicer if we made a struct iproc_pcie_of_data
along the lines of ks_pcie_of_data and put the enum values in
instances of that struct.

It's definitely a little more code and space, but it might also help
us get rid of some of the "switch (pcie->type)" stuff scattered around
this driver.
