Subject: Proposal to move PCI out of arch/powerpc and into drivers/of

Hi all,

We are in the process of putting PCI/PCIe into the microblaze
architecture.  

In order to not duplicate/fork the PCI code in Powerpc, we're proposing
to move the PCI code from arch/powerpc into drivers/of such that it
would be common code for Powerpc and MicroBlaze.

This would be the 1st part of a refactoring that would occur with the
PCI code.

Ben H., would you mind if that happened (move arch/powerpc/kernel/pci*
to drivers/of/*)?

Thanks,
John
