I asked Tomasz why we need to have pci_ecam_ops on the stack in the
first place since I do not think it is needed, or nicer (actually I
think it is not nice at all, what's the problem in making it static ?).

Anyway, that's part of this thread but I think Tomasz was looking
more for feedback/agreement on the whole quirks mechanism to check
if it is fine, more below.

Yes it is.

I think the most important bit about this series is to agree on
whether it is ok to keep quirks in drivers/pci/host/mcfg-quirks.c
or we need to find a different dir for it, and of course to make
sure the quirks mechanism is fine with everyone.

Thanks !
