This is a very useful change.

but I don't like this part. We should just not have bus specific
elements in pci_ops. We don't really have that here either, except
that the gen_pci driver had a hack for reusing the same operations
for things that are actually different.

It's an established practice that anything named '*_operations' is
meant to be constant and ideally defined as 'static const ... *_ops;'
in the driver. We could try to enforce this better by marking
bus->ops as 'const' and changing all the instances of this structure
accordingly.

So this is good. We could in theory unify the map_bus functions
like this now:

static void __iomem *gen_pci_map_cfg_bus(struct pci_bus *bus,
                                         unsigned int devfn,
                                         int where)
{
        struct gen_pci *pci = bus->sysdata;
	struct gen_pci_cfg_bus_ops *ops;
        resource_size_t idx;

	ops = container_of(bus->ops, struct gen_pci_cfg_bus_ops, ops);
	idx = bus->number - pci->cfg.bus_range->start;

        return pci->cfg.win[idx] + ((devfn << ops->dev_shift) | where);
}

Not sure if that improves clarity or not, up to Will.

This is the part that grabbed my attention, we should not do it like this.
