Can you give any more details here? Without more hints, it's hard to
know whether any of the compatibility reasons might apply to Linux as
well.

through the PCI host bridge? That might be documented as a "BAR", but
it's not anything the Linux PCI core would recognize as a BAR.

I think the specs would envision this being done via an ACPI _SRS
method on the PNP0A03 host bridge device. That would be a more
generic path that would work on any host bridge. Did you explore that
possibility? I would prefer to avoid adding device-specific code if
that's possible.

We would need some sort of printk here to explain how this new window
magically appeared.
