Agreed on renaming the variables to match the name with the product vendor rather
than the product owner to maintain consistency. The local defines will use the name
DW_PCIE_XILINX_MDB_<VAR-NAME>. The

Agreed for this, the variable names should have relation with the product vendor
rather than the product owner.

Agreed, for the reason mentioned above.

Agreed. Revision and header check will be removed.

This will be moved to  dw_edma_pcie_get_xilinx_dma_data() function.

In the above suggestion, having dw_edma_set_chan_region_offset() in the
current function makes sense as when checked along patch 2/2 of the same
series. Moreover, the function is setting up some offsets, doing so in a *get*
function does not look justified just because they are related to same vendor.
Similar thing is being done when setting up the ll and dt virt / phys addresses
In the same probe() function which is after *getting* the vsec data and
then *setting* up the next data based on the retrieved info. I also followed
the similar approach, for Xilinx, of *getting* vsec data, *setting* up offsets
and then move ahead with final *settings* of ll and dt regions.
