Hi Bjorn,
I figured it out. The difference between the functions is whether they
use struct pci_bus * or struct pci_dev * as cursor. I found that the
functions are in fact equivalent. The last loop iteration in
pci_enable_atomic_ops_to_root is equivalent to the code after the loop
in qedr_pci_set_atomic. Both handle the root port.
I think my confusion was based on an incorrect assumption that
bridge->bus->self is the same as bridge. But brigde->bus is in fact the
parent bus.
I sent out an updated patch that addresses your comments to the previous
version. This should be general enough that it can replace
qedr_pci_set_atomic.
Regards,
Felix
