I can't reproduce this on p3041 -- pcibios_init gets called after  
fsl_pci_probe, and its PCIe e1000 gets detected and used.

fsl_pci_probe should be called when of_platform_bus_probe is called,  
which is in a machine_arch_initcall.  pcibios_init is a  
subsys_initcall, which should happen later.

Which p2020 board are you using?  Could you check when it is calling  
of_platform_bus_probe?
