I wonder if it would make sense to make

I wonder why current code doesn't check _TTP? The code in the
add_io_space() seems to think _TTP is always set, right?
I think it's an oversight, and you should fix it. I suggest that you
ignore the _TRA value when _TTP is set. Obviously this only applies
to I/O port resources, since _TTP is only defined in the I/O Resource
Flag (Table 6-185 in ACPI 5.0 spec).
_TTP is also defined in the Memory Resource flag, Please have a look at
Table 6-184 in the ACPI 5.0 Spec.
Yes, you're right. That would be for a host bridge that converts I/O
on the primary (upstream) side of the bridge to memory on the PCI
side. I've never seen such a bridge, and I can't really imagine why
anybody would do that. But I guess you should be able to safely
ignore _TRA when _TTP is set in either a MEM or IO descriptor, because
the same reasoning should apply to both.
I am not sure how to deal with _TTP unsetting io resource? _TTP unsetting
mean the resource is IO on the primary side and also IO on the secondary
side.
If _TTP is not set, I guess you would apply _TRA. That's what you
already do for MEM descriptors, and think you should just do the same
for IO descriptors. I would guess that having _TTP = 0 and _TRA != 0
is rare for IO descriptors, but I suppose it could happen.
