I understand that some macro of the PCI does not depend on only PPC as Andrew
points it out.
I am thinking other countermeasure.

I wanted to remove CPU and baords of specific code from from PCI network driver.
CONFIG_E500, DB64360 and DB64460 CPU is PPC.
I thought that I could collect these with header files of PPC.
Therefore I sent that patch in RFC.
