I did not know that device_type="pci" implies that it must be a
bridge;  [1] says "device_type" is deprecated  for PCI and [2] defers
to Open Firmware EEE 1275, which is not free AFAICT. Do you have
better URLs that describe this?  At any rate, I will remove the
device_type="pci" from the innermost DT node, and resubmit.

Thanks, will look.
