You changed code that arch/powerpc depends on, without updating it, or even
CC'ing us on the patches. I'm not sure what you mean by "before I've had a
chance to actually change the code there" - it's too late.

Yes, we already provide our own version of pci_address_to_pio().
The problem is it's too early to call it when we come in from
find_and_init_phbs() -> pci_process_bridge_OF_ranges(), so it returns junk.
I think you were expecting us to hit the #ifndef PCI_IOBASE case, which looks
like it might have worked.
For now we're just going to stop using of_pci_range_to_resource().
cheers
