Oh yes, that's right, I forgot that connection.  I'm afraid I kind of
dropped the ball on that thread, so I went back and read through it
again.

I *think* the current state is:

  - I'm OK with the first two patches that add the quirk
    infrastructure.

  - My issue with the last three patches that add ThunderX quirks is
    that there's no generic description of the ECAM address space.

So if I understand correctly, your Qualcomm patch depends only on the
first two patches.

Then the question is how the Qualcomm ECAM address space is described.
Your quirk overrides the default pci_generic_ecam_ops with the
&pci_32b_ops, but it doesn't touch the address space part, so I assume
the bus ranges and corresponding address space in your MCFG is
correct.  So far, so good.

Is there also an ACPI device that contains that space in _CRS?  I
think we concluded that the standard solution is to describe this with
a PNP0C02 device.

Would you mind opening a bugzilla at bugzilla.kernel.org and attaching
the dmesg log, /proc/iomem, and maybe a DSDT dump?  I'd like to have
something to point at to say "if you need an MCFG quirk, you need the
MCFG bit and *also* these other related ACPI device bits, and here's
how it should be done."
