This patch was about cadence so my comment above what related to that.

It does this almost immediately:

bridge->ops = &dw_pcie_ops;

Can we like add some function into those ops such that the necessary read
can be performed? Like .early_root_config_read or something like that?

Then the host bridge capability finder can input struct pci_host_bridge
*host_bridge and can do host_bridge->ops->early_root_cfg_read(host_bridge,
...). That would already be a big win over passing the read function
itself as a pointer.

Hopefully having such a function in the ops would allow moving other
common controller driver functionality into PCI core as well as it would
abstract the per controller read function (for the time before everything
is fully instanciated).

Is that a workable approach?
