pci_address_to_pio() is alread __weak. My patch was adding the arm64 version of it. Adding
an #ifdef GENERIC_PCI to the __weak implementation is not just a temporary solution.
We would still have to keep some sort of #ifdef around in the function as x86
will never pickup our version. Regardless, the list of people that would need to ACK that
change will increase, right?

Best regards,
