Hi Arnd, Thanks for your comments. My replies inline below. Please let me know if there is anything else, before post a respin of the patch series that addresses your comments.

Or even better, kill this structure entirely and just pass around pointers to the fsl_mc_device so you can deal with multiple root instances.
Ok. I'll remove this global structure.

Ok. I'll remove all the magic fields and their checking.

Ok. I'll removed them.
Does it need to be exported to drivers? How about making it EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL if it does?
Yes it needs to be accessed by another driver that will come in a later patch series. I'll change it to EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()

Done.

Ok, I will remove struct fsl_mc_device_region and use struct resource instead.+static int fsl_mc_device_get_mmio_regions(struct fsl_mc_device *mc_dev, + struct fsl_mc_device *container_dev) +{ + int i; + int error; + struct fsl_mc_device_region *regions; + struct dprc_obj_desc *obj_desc = &mc_dev->obj_desc; + struct device *parent_dev = mc_dev->dev.parent; + + regions = kmalloc_array(obj_desc->region_count, + sizeof(regions[0]), GFP_KERNEL);Better use 'struct resource' for the resources than make your own type.

No, there is not 32-bit DMA limitation for this bus. Also,this dma_mask field is not currently being used. So, I'll remove it.
Yes, this is being added in the 'ARM64: Add support for FSL's LS2085A SoC' patch series, already posted for review.+ +static const struct of_device_id fsl_mc_bus_match_table[] = { + {.compatible = "fsl,qoriq-mc",}, + {}, +};Please add a binding documentation for this device in Documentation/device-tree/

You are right. Removed the container field. We can get the parent DPRC of a given dev, from its dev.parent field.+ * @container: Pointer to the DPRC device that contains this MC object deviceWhy are there two devices for this? Should this just use dev->parent instead?
We still need to keep a per-bus list of child devices (devices contained in a given DPRC object). Unless I'm missing something, I think the device model's list management links together all the devices of the same bus type. We are trying to follow a similar approach to the pci_dev/pci_bus structs.+ * @dev_node: Node in the container's child listSame here: just use the device model's list management instead if you can, or explain why this is needed.
+ * @obj_desc: MC description of the DPAA device + * @num_regions: Number of MMIO regions for this MC object deviceDoesn't actually exist?
No. Removed.

Done.

Agreed. This is redundant. Removed.

This structure represents the per-bus (per DPRC object) information. It is kind of the equivalent to 'struct pci_bus' in the PCI world. I have renamed this struct to 'struct fsl_mc_bus'.
