Problem in PCI initialization

[G.Muruganandam]

Before testing the PCI in linux, you need to make 
sure that the PCI is working under u-boot with out any issues.

Here are the check list.

1. pci long command under u-boot should display 
the pci configuration registers of the device in PCI bus
     consistently.

2. Check the PCI BAR registers at offset 
0x10,0x14 and 0x18 are configured with proper values based on
     whether it is a PCI memory mapped device or IO mapped device.

3. Check the TLB setting under U-boot whether it 
is set correctly for the PCI memory and/or IO regions.
    If you are using the u-boot 1.1.x, you should 
look at init.S for the particular board/cpu.

Hope this helps!

Thanks
