Too bad. You're breaking the case where there's no ISA node.

It is not more efficient, because you're doing the search for every PCIe
bus rather than once. Not that it matters in this context.

That was meant for when the board file had an alternate way of searching
for the primary bus (e.g. look for i8259), not as a replacement for the
mechanism that guarantees there's a primary bus.
You are causing a regression in the qemu_e500.c platform.

Does that board have ISA on it, that isn't described by the device tree?
If so, before converting to the new init mechanism, the board code will
need to set fsl_pci_primary based on its own knowledge of where that ISA
is. If it doesn't have ISA, it doesn't matter which one we designate as
primary.

Yeah, I just implemented the fallback for fun. Come on.
It was recently discussed on this list. PCI under QEMU did not work
without it.

Those boards are not being correctly set up. On real hardware things
work by chance, but not under QEMU.
