This patch adds the DW PCIe controller implemented in the framework of
MIPS32 arch:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20220822184701.25246-21-Sergey.Semin@baikalelectronics.ru/

What about finding out what is a root cause of the performance
degradation instead of just dropping the whole standard zone support?

If you moved the DMA-mask setting to the platform driver that would
have solved my problems. I am pretty much sure the generic code
shouldn't be altering the DMA-mask if it isn't aware of the actual
device capability. In case of DW PCIe controller the AXI-bus address
width is a platform specific parameter and the generic DW PCIe code
doesn't know which width is valid.
