I prefer patches that are based on -rc1, i.e., the pci/main branch,
not on the pci/next branch.

If a series *requires* functionality that is already on a topic
branch, you can base it on that branch instead of on pci/main.

This series happens to touch some of the same code as
pci/controller/gpio, but it doesn't require those gpio changes, so it
does not need to be based on pci/controller/gpio.

Having this series based on pci/main means that if we update or drop
the gpio branch for some reason, this series will still make sense.
