Hmmmm. It looks like that the mmconfig is not yet supported upstream for
ARM64. So even with arch function for pci_probe so it won't work.

I hit the compilation issue on a 4.2 with patched applied for some
hardware enablement. Some of them if for mmconfig.

I should have check it before sending it. Sorry for the noise.
