pref_mem64 describes the resource, not the HW.

All the PCI specs define Type 1 configuration space with Prefetchable Memory
register as 64-bit. Even if the Type 1 (PCI Bridge) HW ignores this register.
See "7.5.3. Type 1 Configuration Space Header" of PCI EXPRESS BASE
SPECIFICATION, REV. 1.1.

Hrm...I don't think this is a quirk. PCI spec defines 64-bit PrefMem
window register regardless of what type of resource we program into it.
