This patches basic on
https://lore.kernel.org/imx/20250128-pci_fixup_addr-v9-0-3c4bb506f665@nxp.com/
I have not hardware to test.
Look for driver owner, who help test this and start move forward to remove
cpu_addr_fixup() work.

Do you have any pointers to DTs that will be broken? Or to commits where they were fixed? > You should fix the existing DTs and continue carrying the callback > for a while. Any insight into where these existing DTs are used and how long they're likely to live? Bjorn

Just like we continue to support old hardwares, we need to continue supporting old DTs for some time. The best we can do is provide some warning so that users can update their DTBs. Then we can get rid of the old DT support in the driver after some time. That's why I asked Frank to add the warning previously. - Mani -- மணிவண்ணன் சதாசிவம்

Right, I guess the rule is that if we have patches that fix DT issues, we should apply them as soon as possible. And later if we ever have confidence that unfixed DTs no longer exist (or if we can identify and work around them in the kernel), we can remove the .cpu_addr_fixup(). Bjorn

Unfortunately, we do not have a fixed deadline or process. Just like supporting the legacy broken hw, we have to keep supporting the old DTs for some time and then get rid of them. - Mani -- மணிவண்ணன் சதாசிவம்
