Bjorn, thanks a lot for your comments. All comments except last one
(leverage pciehp) are covered in v2 which wasn't copied to linux-pci@
list to avoid unnecessary traffic. Yeah, the driver is too much PowerNV
platform specific things, which makes it hard to be built on top of
pciehp.

Thanks,
Gavin
