thunder-pem driver stands for being ACPI based PCI host controller.
However, there is no standard way to describe its PEM-specific register
ranges in ACPI tables. Thus we add thunder_pem_init() ACPI extension
to obtain hardcoded addresses from static resource array.
Although it is not pretty, it prevents from creating standard mechanism to
handle similar cases in future.

1) The "correct" way to discover the resources consumed by an ACPI
device is to use the _CRS method. I know there are some issues
there for bridges (not the fault of ThunderX!) because there's not
a good way to distinguish windows from resources consumed directly
by the bridge.

But we should either do this correctly, or include a comment about
why we're doing it wrong, so we don't give the impression that this
is the right way to do it.

I seem to recall some discussion about why we're doing it this way,
but I don't remember the details. It'd be nice to include a
summary here.

OK I will. The reason why we cannot use _CRS for this case is that CONSUMER flag was not use consistently for the bridge so far.


2) This is a little weird because here we define the resource size as
16MB, in the OF case we get the resource size from OF, in either
case we ioremap 64K of it, and then as far as I can tell, we only
ever access PEM_CFG_WR and PEM_CFG_RD, at offsets 0x28 and 0x30
into the space.

If the hardware actually decodes the entire 16MB, we should ioremap
the whole 16MB. (Strictly speaking, drivers only need to ioremap
the parts they're using, but in this case nobody claims the entire
resource because of deficiencies in the ACPI and OF cores, so the
driver should ioremap the entire thing to help prevent conflicts
with other devices.)

It'd be nice if we didn't have the 64KB magic number. I think
using devm_ioremap_resource() would be nice.

I agree.

David, is there anything which prevents us from using devm_ioremap_resource() here with SZ_16M size?
