The difference is only the read function in hose->ops, which is set to
indirect_read_config instead of fsl_indirect_read_config.

fsl_indirect_read_config calls fsl_pcie_check_link, which is where the Oops
occurs.

Why is fsl_pcie_check_link being called for non-PCIe buses?

Mike, can you find out where exactly in fsl_pcie_check_link the bad access
happens? Enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE might help.

Why does it matter? You shouldn't be calling that function at all.
