Hi Ilpo,

Thanks your for reply. Let's look at the main problem first.

I'll try to add and test it in your way first.

Another problem here is that I've seen some drivers invoke 
dw_pcie_find_*capability before if (pp->ops->init) {. When I confirm it, 
or I'll see if I can cover all the issues.

If I pass the test, I will provide the temporary patch here, please 
check whether it is OK, and then submit the next version. If not, we'll 
discuss it.

Thank you very much for your advice.
