While I agree that it's a problem with OF, every other driver has
already been changed to paper over the issue. This patch just brings
this one remaining OF-PCIe driver to the same level as the others.
Without the patch, the driver doesn't work at all if there is a bridge
chip on the other end of the controller, so this is not just a
hypothetical concern for us.

Couldn't the eventual OF fix just refactor this driver along with all
of the others? Doing such a sweeping OF change is outside my current
comfort zone. I am not familiar enough with the code to understand all
the parts that would need to be touched.
