Hi Jisheng,

Inspired by Russell King's patch[1], I found current iproc also has the
same issue of "reading 32-bits from the command register, modifying the
command register, and then writing it back has the effect of clearing
any status bits that were indicating at that time" as pointed out by
Russell. This patch fix this issue by using the pci_generic_config_write.

I have already confirmed with the ASIC team that the current iProc PCIe controller requires 32-bit aligned access into the configuration space due to the way how it was integrated into various iProc SoCs including NSP, Cygnus, and NS2.

This change will prevent the driver from working properly.

I've informed our ASIC team about this issue and all future iProc based SoCs should be able to support 8-bit, 16-bit access and therefore pci_generic_config_write/read can be used for those SoCs.

Thanks,

Ray
