Yes but IIUC those registers that allow indirection live in the address
space pointed at by pcie->base, right ? Question is whether it is fine
to access those registers through mappings resulting on posted writes
and that's a question I need your help to answer as I said in the cover
letter.

Thanks a lot for flagging this up, that's exactly the feedback I need.
