Thanks for the offer.

I know that the Free Electron guys, Thomas or Gregory, will be looking
at PCI for 370/XP soon and Kirkwood and Dove are in scope for that
work, as far as i know. So i will see how that developers, maybe lend
a hand, and see how easy it is to integrate support for Orion5x.

I suspect Orion5x might be a problem though. Its both PCI and PCIe,
where as the others are purely PCIe and orion5x has WA access method,
which all the other Marvell systems don't have. Also, it seems like
some Orion5x boards have the PCI IRQ on GPIO lines where as all the
other SoC have dedicated pins.
