No, pnp resource reservation is after pci bar reservation.

because it is locked down by BIOS to chipset, readback should be 0xfed98004.

and pci_size will return 32k for 0xfed98000.

BIOS _CRS

[    1.956431] PCI: Using host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary,
use "pci=nocrs" and report a bug
[    1.956921] ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (domain 0000 [bus 00-3e])
[    1.957225] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [io  0x0000-0x0cf7]
[    1.957227] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [io  0x0d00-0xffff]
[    1.957229] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0x000a0000-0x000bffff]
[    1.957232] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0x000d4000-0x000d7fff]
[    1.957234] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0x000d8000-0x000dbfff]
[    1.957235] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0x000dc000-0x000dffff]
[    1.957237] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0xdfa00000-0xfeafffff]
[    1.957239] pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem
0xfed40000-0xfed44fff]

and it does not include 0xfed98000 for the 00:04.0, so kernel can not
reserve it,
and kernel will reject it and try to get new range for 00:04.0 but
bios lock down
that in chipset setting register.

so try get one update bios that could return resource for root bus.

or you could try to live with booting with pci=nocrs before your get new BIOS.
