Where is it called for 85xx? As far as I can tell
fsl_setup_indirect_pci is
called exactly once in fsl_add_bridge and nowhere else (after
applying the
proposed patch).
fsl_add_bridge() is where it's called for 85xx.
For 83xx the decision between PCI and PCIe has already been made at
the point where the setup function is called. So IMO it doesn't make
sense
to call fsl_setup_indirect_pci and do the check again. Moreover PCIe
on 83xx
uses a completely different set of functions.
My concern is consistency. E.g. if 85xx is using
fsl_setup_indirect_pci for both, but 83xx isn't, then a developer using
83xx could end up breaking 85xx by introducing another PCIe dependency
in fsl_setup_indirect_pci. Or an 85xx developer could put something
non-PCIe-related in fsl_setup_indirect_pci that 83xx would benefit from.
Alternatively, you could call it fsl_setup_indirect_pcie, and move the
PCIe check into fsl_add_bridge().
