Up to now, I was testing PCIe with this combo:
- U-Boot 1.3.0-rc2 (Nov 19 2007 - 16:37:36) MPC83XX, was on the board
- dtc 1.1.0
- Linux 2.6.24.3 w/ Freescale patches from http://www.bitshrine.org/gpp/


That u-boot (i.e. on the mpc8315e-rdb board) had PCIe initialization.

Is u-boot PCIe initialization required for this kernel patch to work?
