Well, it looks to me like a harmless message and I'll just ignore it, I think,
as long as the affected pci device works properly.

This was part of your lspci:

Region 0: Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Region 1: Memory at f0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Region 3: Memory at f9000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]

See region 0.
