Hi all,
currently every architecture that wants to provide on of the common
periphal busses needs to add some boilerplate code and include the
right Kconfig files. This series instead just selects the presence

Kconfig file under

Move the definitions to drivers/pci and let the architectures select
them. Two small differences to before: PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC now selects
PCI_DOMAINS, cutting down the churn for modern architectures. As the
only architectured arm did previously also offer PCI_DOMAINS as a user
visible choice
Without PCI support the kernel won't even compile, so force it on.

No arm config enables EISA, and arm does not include drivers/eisa/Kconfig
which provides support for things like PCI to EISA bridges, so it is most
likely dead.

Hello,
I tried to use Switchtec NTB on PowerPC platform and faced a strange behaviour.
In ntb_hw_switchtec module's initialization section the "struct device" has
uninitialized field dma_ops (NULL). Meanwhile the same NTB hardware on x86
platform get correct dma_ops in this driver. It looks
