A lot of it should be common. The microblaze code is a copy of the
powerpc version. I'll strongly nack any attempt to add a third!  :-)

drivers/pci/pci-of.c would be good. I'd also accept drivers/of/pci.c
which might actually be a good idea in the short term so that it gets
appropriate supervision while being generalized before being moved into
the pci directory.
