I think this is a very nice series, hope we can get this into 3.20.

I've replied with a few specific comments, but I see no show-stoppers
and I've already retracted a few comments after seeing the bigger
picture.

I still think we will need a split interface for drivers to use
that want to call pci_create_host_bridge() manually, but that can
come later as we try to migrate the arm32 host bridge drivers to
a generic interface away from pci_common_init_dev().

Another follow-up would be to move more of the pcibios_*() functions
into pci_host_bridge_ops.
