Right.  I leave things on topic branches for a day or two to give a chance
for Fengguang's auto-builder to find problems before I merge them into the
more public "next" or "for-linus" branches.

Well, it's not really "reduced functionality."  It is unchanged by this
series and host bridge drivers can continue using it the same way they have
in the past.  It's just that we'd like to make it smarter someday.

OK, I rebuilt pci/host-generic from scratch.  It consists of your v13
patches + Arnd's build fix for pci_pio_to_address() in !CONFIG_OF configs.
