Right, that is the common code that correctly sets the MRRS that you
should be using instead of quirks.

Hmm, a cursory glance tells me the same as well.

That seems to be the root problem here, ARM needs to do the PCIE
setup just as much as any other arch.

So, I would prefer to see you fix ARM common code to call
pcie_bus_configure_settings() properly, that seems very simple and is
obviously needed for any PCI-E host driver on ARM.

Thoughts? Arnd? Bjorn?
