I would expect this patchset to take more time than the bugfix.
I will update the patches when the fix is queued to -next.

In this case, I think splitting the pci-thunder-* will make it more
complex than just switching everything to ecam.h in one go.

If the patch needs to be split, I can move some of the simplification
that was done to gen_pci structure and pci-host-common to a separate
patch.
