No.

The EA patch set that you merged to 4.4 supersedes this.

Yes it is PCI-PCI

The problem is that all the downstream devices require 64-bit 
non-prefetchable addressing, which cannot be satisfied with the bridge 
provisioning code.  EA allows this to be described.

In any event the patch is not needed now that the EA code is in place.
