Thanks Bjorn.

The current status is that we plan to send a new patchset early next 
week with the suggested change to combine PCI+extio IO framework. The IO 
space range stuff (pci_register_io_range() et al) will move from 
drivers/pci/pci.c to new lib/libio.c (renamed from extio.c).

We still need someone to merge (we are praying to make 4.11), and also 
Arnd to kindly check the update from his sketch and also more reviews of 
the ACPI part of what was extio.c 
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/devicetree/msg160611.html, 5/5)

Much appreciated,
John
