Hi Gustavo,

Thank you!

There might be one more change, and improvement, to be done as per
Bjorn's feedback, see:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210208193516.GA406304@bjorn-Precision-5520/

The code in question would be (exceprt from the patch):

[...]
+static int dw_xdata_pcie_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev,
+			       const struct pci_device_id *pid)
+{
+	const struct dw_xdata_pcie_data *pdata = (void *)pid->driver_data;
+	struct dw_xdata *dw;
[...]
+	dw->rg_region.vaddr = pcim_iomap_table(pdev)[pdata->rg_bar];
+	if (!dw->rg_region.vaddr)
+		return -ENOMEM;
[...]

Perhaps something like the following would would?

void __iomem * const *iomap_table;

iomap_table = pcim_iomap_table(pdev);
if (!iomap_table)
        return -ENOMEM;

dw->rg_region.vaddr = iomap_table[pdata->rg_bar];
if (!dw->rg_region.vaddr)
	return -ENOMEM;

With sensible error messages added, of course.  What do you think?
