Which as a matter of fact I should take as pci_sys_data.domain is
useless on pci-mvebu.c, since that value will always be 0 (at least it
is in the current driver):

#ifdef CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS
	domain = sys->domain;
#endif

Am I missing something ? Is that domain number meant to be used for anything
else ?

Thanks,
Lorenzo
