We are not aware about any use of tsi500 P-RIO switches.
I would consider parallel implementation as an early stage
of RapidIO development which may be safely dropped.
I will keep P-RIO related definitions only because they are part of
the spec. I consider removing tsi500 switch driver as well.

Yes.

This gives us an issue that has to be solved at some point.
Splitting doorbell resources may be a way in this case but should be
considered in context of RIO network with different endpoints and
therefore
it will be some device-specific quirk.

Probably the best approach in this case is to keep doorbell handler as
it is now (for purpose of this patchset) and address doorbell resource
assignment during enumeration/discovery. At least this has to be well
commented.
