Hi all,

This series includes an attempt to deal with the PCIe address translation
behaviour of Microchip PolarFire SoC.  On this chip, FPGA logic exists
between the PCIe rootport and the CPUs (Core Complex). So, outbound and
inbound translation to PCIe devices is achieved by a combination of individual 
customer's FPGA fabric designs and by the PCIe rootport itself and thus
the outbound and inbound address translation specified in range
properties and dma-range properties of the PCIe rootport appears insufficient
as they do not capture how much outbound and inbound address translation
has occured in the FPGA design between the addresses used by the CPU and
the addresses used by the PCIe devices. So, we require some mechanism
to inform the root port of what address translation it actually needs
to perform in order to achieve the goals specified in the range and
dma-range properties.

This series proposes two new Microchip properties, each in the form of
ranges, which capture the amount of outbound and inbound translation
done by the FPGA fabric, if any.  

If the new properties are absent, the range and dma-range properties 
are intended to be parsed by the root port driver as usual, and the 
entire specified address translation is carried out by the root port
using its address translation tables.

if one of the new properties are present, the translations
carried out by the rootport, as specified in the range or dma-range properties,
are adjusted by the amount of address translation carried out by
the FPGA design, as described in the details of the new properties.

The new properties are structured as ranges to enable FPGA designers to have
different address translation ranges; for example, an FPGA designer may
choose to partition 32-bit address translation and 38-bit translation through
different apertures for their particular design or may choose to target
non-cached and/or cached DDR with different dma-ranges.

This series contains a proposed new binding for the properties, and an
implementation of the new properties for the Microchip PolarFire SoC
PCIe rootport driver.

Thanks,
Daire
