Indeed, only zreladdr is actually required.

Since I was targetting 3.6 initially I more or less used what was existing by 
the time I wrote the patches, but I will do this.

This muxing is actually hardwired with the bootstrap register setting. I could 
also even remove this because the underlying hardware block actually does not 
need to use the GPIOs, they will be configured as pins for the corresponding 
functions directly. This is also not runtime modifiable. I just thought that 
marking these GPIOs as reserved by the corresponding functionnality could help 
the user figuring out what is happening with them.

There are no particular reasons, I could use the the define for the virtual 
address directly.

Last I did this, I managed to get interrupt handling issues with Ethernet, but 
I will try to address this. So far, since we support only MCS8140 this is not 
a problem, MCS8142 also has the same interrupt controller.

Right, thanks!

This would need a complete PCI irq mapping representation, so far we have the 
DT properties, but not the corresponding code to parse them. I would not 
qualify this as a major blocker.

I will look into this, considering that we still have 2 timers left available 
(64-bits and 16-bits) this should be doable.

Thank you for your comments, I will wait a little more for other people to 
come up before coming up with a patch respin.
