Sure, I just figured I'd start with IO, and do the rest after
I have a better idea if I am going into the right direction.

Ok, makes sense. Would you want to see that message for every port ?
Guess I can check how it looks like, to make sure that I don't end up
getting a lot of noise again.

Correct. I could have checked if io is disabled (limit < base),
but at least for the time being I wanted the impact to be minimal.
So far the code auto-enables IO if it was disabled (eg by the BIOS)
but the bridge chip supports it. I only wanted to keep it disabled
if it was likely that it was disabled by pci_setup_bridge_io().

Of course,
if (io && pci_parent_supports_io(bus))
might just be sufficient.

Would be great - this should solve the above problem automatically.
I was hesitant to do that, because I don't know if there would be side
effects. I could take out the io handling from pci_bridge_check_ranges()
and see what happens, but obviously my test coverage would be somewhat
limited.

Flag bits seem to be all taken. Could we use IORESOURCE_DISABLED for that
purpose, or could that cause conflicts elsewhere ?

More a matter of me not knowing what I need to do. resource[0] is NULL
for the root bus, at least on the powerpc system I used for testing.

Can you give me a hint on how to do that, hopefully in a platform
independent way ? Walk through bus->resources and search for an
IO resource ? Or does resource[0] == NULL already indicate
that there is no IO aperture ?

Thanks,
Guenter
