Not sure what you intend for the bnxt changes, since they depend on
the PCI core changes. I'm happy to merge them via PCI, given acks
from Michael and an overall network maintainer.

The bnxt patch can go in through the PCI tree if Jakub agrees. Thanks.

I guess the most critical point is to avoid complex conflict at merge window time. My understanding it that the conventional way to avoid such issue would be sharing a stable branch somewhere with this change on top which both the netdev and the PCI tree could pull from.

Cheers,
