Was this platform working with the old PCIe driver in mach-kirkwood/ ?

Could you instead use the latest master from Linus tree? That would
avoid merge conflicts, and ensure you have all the necessary pieces.

The first cannot work, because it lacks the range for the PCIe. The
second should work. The correct merge should be:

 		ranges = <0x00000000 0xf1000000 0x0100000		
 		          0xf4000000 0xf4000000 0x0000400
 		          0xe0000000 0xe0000000 0x8100000>;

i.e, we've added the PCIe range (last line) and splitted the SRAM into
its own range (or something like that, don't remember the details, but
Ezequiel can confirm).

The first test you did cannot work at all, due to the incorrect ranges.

If you have the PCIe working with the old driver, can you pastebin
somewhere the complete boot log, as well as the output of "lspci
-vvv" ?

A second mvebu-pcie controller? Is your Device Tree correct?

I'm not really sure to understand what's going on here. Can you post
the complete boot log, and test with the latest Linus git tree, where
all the PCIe support got merged?

Thanks!
