Using struct pci_config_window to pass along domain and
companion looks bad.  I think there are two possible options
to do this better:

1. add a 'struct fwnode_handle *' or 'struct device *parent_dev'
   instead of the companion and domain fields above. In case of
   ACPI either of them can be used to get the acpi_device and
   both  domain and companion can be set from that.

2. make pci_config_window fully embeddable by moving allocation
   out of pci_ecam_create to its callers. Then it can be embedded
   into acpi_pci_generic_root_info, and container_of can be used
   to get acpi info from ->sysdata.

The first option should be easier to implement but the second may
be better on long run. I would leave it to the Bjorn or Rafael to
suggest which is preferred.
