Definitely. I'm having a hard time grasping all of this by just looking
at the code. Some sort of functional description (like what you provide
here) would be really useful.

This seems to be what is referred to as the FPCI in the TRM and the
driver.

Yes, this actually matches with the driver. Config space accesses are
mapped to 0xfdff0000 and ext. config space accesses go to 0xfe100000.

I don't know how this works out for what Bjorn had in mind, but at least
it'll allow the driver to be fixed for extended config space accesses.
