I'll send a v2 where I also use this definition in arch/mips/netlogic/xlp/ instead of PCI_VENDOR_NETLOGIC from arch/mips/include/asm/netlogic/xlp-hal/iomap.h.
Therefore it will remove this definition from the iomap.h and move it to pci_ids.h
This will IMHO be a clear benefit as it removes a redundant definition.
