Yes, I figured it was non-PCIe because the code change that you said =20
helped was on the non-PCIe branch of the if/else.  Generally it's good =20
to explicitly mention the chip you're using, though.

fsl_setup_indirect_pci should be renamed to fsl_setup_indirect_pcie.  =20
Your patch above should be applied, and fsl_setup_indirect_pcie should =20
be moved into the booke/86xx ifdef to avoid an unused function warning.
