OK, someone can roll it back. Actually the E7501 support in v2 is side product when I tried to add support for E7520...

Could we please reserve this construct for chipsets with multiple northbridges?
Whew, I'm glad you said that Eric, it concerned me too!
This is not something I think it is worth much of an argument about.
I think doing this with the E7501 makes is less good as an example, for other boards.
Except for chipsets with multiple northbridges I don't intend to use the root_complex structure.
When you have multiple northbridges it nicely makes the information we specify per northbridge symmetric. Which helps in a lot of little ways. But for a single chipset it really is unnecessary. It is the device's that really cary structure information and we have all of those, one way or another.
