It's the only mode which was tested.

You have to initialise the on-chip PCI bridge to work in agent mode. I think that the function which you wrote initialises it to work as PCI host and it's not what you want. You have to read the board's manual (and the chip's manual) to find how to work in agent mode. I don't know if there is any support in U-Boot for agent mode.
