That doesn't happen when you start scanning the bus. The existing code will
use the IORESOURCE_MEM for allocating memory space for devices, which is
not what you want. Did you test your patch on any PCI system? I'm pretty
sure that with my patch series that tries to make a generic framework for
host controllers this will fail.

We really need a IORESOURCE_CFG flag for this space.
