That was inspired by the FIXUP in keystone, which uses
PCI_ANY_ID/PCI_ANY_ID too.

However, keystone also does not have arm64 variants it seems.
Furthermore, the keystone fixup checks PCI ids in code.

I don't think there is special linker magic, if CONFIG_PCI_IMX6 is
enabled this will get called.

I agree, I should use PCI_VENDOR_ID_SYNOPSYS, 0xabcd here.


Btw, while looking at the patch again I realized that I need to check
imx6_pcie->drvdata->dbi_length for 0 and not apply in this case to avoid
breaking other i.MX designs.

I will send a v7.
