What's the point of this change? Both initialize r to 0. memset()
generates better code, but that's irrelevant for the problem at hand.

And the "fix" is also missing that the address range check happens for
IORESOURCE_IO as well. Which is silly because
acpi_dev_resource_address_space() has that already for the IO
case. But sure, that does not help, because it does not return false,
it sets the IORESOURCE_DISABLED flag and returns true.

Now the code in setup_resource() clears that flag along with all other
flags which does not make any sense, at least not without a comment.

But clearing and therefor ignoring IORESOURCE_DISABLED does not make
any sense at all and is outright wrong.

So there is another interesting flag: IORESOURCE_WINDOW. That's
cleared as well and of course the rest of that setup code does not
handle it either. If IORESOURCE_WINDOW is not set, then this is
address space which is consumed by the bridge itself. So its just
wrong to treat it as window and try coalescing it with the real window
spaces.

Also why is this x86 bridge specific?

if (addr.resource_type == ACPI_MEMORY_RANGE &&
addr.info.mem.caching == ACPI_PREFETCHABLE_MEMORY)
r.flags |= IORESOURCE_PREFETCH;

and not happening in the acpi code? Just because struct resource does
not have a field for it? Sigh.

This needs more than a hacked together fixup, really. It was wrong
before Jiangs change already.

You can be sure that I'm going to fix the whole mess there proper and
not by applying a cobbled together bandaid.

Thanks,
