We are just about submitting support for 7712 which is the sister chip
of 2712 and requires similar, if not identical types of changes to
pcie-brcmstb.c, would you mind reviewing that patch series when it gets
posted by Jim in the next few days, and base yours upon that one? It
does separate changes in a more atomic and a more reviewer friendly
rather than having one big commit modifying pcie-brcmstb.c
Thanks.
