This doesn't require any coordination with the PCI core, so I was just
leaving this up to the arch.  But I guess I can at least give you my
opinion :)

My first choice would be to just drop the printk altogether.

If we want to keep the printk, it should be enough to test "bus->self
&& !pci_is_pcie(bus->self)" to see whether Fast Back-to-Back can be
enabled.

Personally, I would like to see everything in the file converted to
use dev_printk so it's consistent with the PCI core.  That would be a
separate patch, and there might be other instances under arch/arm,
too.
