In other to mimic other PCIe host controller drivers, introduce an advk_pcie_valid_device() helper, used in the configuration read/write functions.
This patch by itself is not a fix, but it is required for a follow-up patch that is a fix, hence the Fixes tag and the Cc to stable.
Should not we just reshuffle patch 1 and 2 instead of sending this patch to stable ? I appreciate the merge window is open and timing is quite tight, it is just to avoid sending churn to stable kernels for not much.
I can certainly do that, but it's actually Bjorn who asked in the first place to introduce the advk_pcie_valid_device() helper.
I did suggest [1] adding advk_pcie_valid_device() to match other drivers, but I don't care about the order of these patches. If it makes more sense to put the fix first for easier backporting to stable, that's fine with me.
