Robin and Marc,

Thanks! Yes, this patch exposes an issue in my dt which ends up
killing off ecam0 thus hiding the original 'hang on reboot' issue I
was trying to find related to mmc with a quick bisect.

As you expected ecam0 fails probe:
[    0.977514] pci-host-generic: probe of 848000000000.pci failed with error -12

Cavium/Marvell never mainlined their cn81xx device-tree and their
latest SDK appears to still have this issue. It looks to me like the
first mem range in ecam0 is just wrong and needs to be removed:

This results in:

and all of the PCI devices appear to work fine. Is there an additional
issue I need to work on regarding the 'Memory resource size exceeds
max for 32 bits' warning above?
