The existing driver has the correct compat string but we don't get that far
since the rp1 node doesn't get probed and attached. This node is nested
under pcie@120000 and the whole subtree never gets explored. Interestingly,
if I hack the 2711 driver a little (based on reading Linux sources), I can
get that to attach and the rp1 southbridge is visible on the PCI bus with
vendor id 0x1de4, device id 0x0001. I made a stub driver for it but that
isn't particularly helpful since we need an FDT device to get simplebus to
attach and discover all the rp1 sub-devices.

I could try to add any ofw children to the pcie device, I guess. By the
looks of things, that just needs me to implement ofw_bus_get_devinfo and
maybe bus_get_resource_list in the pcie driver. Reading the DTB sources,
the 2711 pcie separates out the MSI part as a separate node in the DTB
which will need a driver before we can get much further.
