Yeah, I was afraid they might be too tightly coupled to split up.
Still, every little bit helps.

Sure enough, I see it there now. I think it's easier to review when
split out, so I'll keep it separate, since it's not actually dependent
on the rest of the changes in "sparc/PCI: Use correct offset for bus
address to resource".

I added your acks and pushed the result to pci/resource. I'll also
post these formally on the list so they're easier to find.
