Sure Bjorn, please wait for v8.

But there is one more associated patch
[PATCH v7 1/3] OF/PCI: Export inbound memory interface to PCI RC
which basically aims to provide an interface to RC drivers for their
inbound resources.
RC driver already get their outbound resources from
of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources,
similar attempt for inbound dma-ranges.

Thanking you for looking into this.

Oza.
