X-Gene PCIe host driver is dependent on arm64 PCI patch. My previous
approach was based on 32bit arm PCI support. With Liviu's approach, I
will have to make changes in host driver to get rid of hw_pci and
pci_sys_data which are no longer required.

IMO it should not cause build errors for PCI host drivers dependent on
architectures other than arm64. Can you post the error?
