This adds a new PCI controller driver for the Intel IXP4xx (IX425, IXP435 etc), based on the XScale microarchitecture. This replaces the old driver in arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx/common-pci.c which utilized the ARM-specific BIOS32 PCI framework, and all parameterization for such things as memory and IO space as well as interrupt swizzling is done from the device tree. The plan is to phase out and delete the old driver piecemal. The __raw_writel() and __raw_readl() are used for accessing the PCI controller for the same reason that these accessors are used in the timer, IRQ and GPIO drivers: the platform will alter its address bus pattern based on whether the system is booted in big- or little-endian mode. For this reason all register on IXP4xx must always be accessed in native (CPU) endianness. This driver supports 64MB of PCI memory space, but not the indirect access of 1GB that is available in the old driver. We can address that later if and only if there are users that need all 1GB of PCI address space. Krzysztof reports having to use indirect MMIO only once for a VGA card. There is work ongoing for general indirect MMIO. (In practice the indirect MMIO is performed by writing address and writing and reading values into/from a controller register.) Tested by booting the NSLU2, attaching a USB stick, mounting and browsing the drive.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
