Indeed, I've explored the quirks option.
Unfortunately the fixup hook seems to be called too late in the code
since pci_enable_device()calls pcibios_enable_device() which actually
send a PCI command with CMD |=PCI_COMMAND_IO and configure the PCI HW.
The IORESOURCE_MEM and IORESOURCE_IO flags are set at the time the
pci_enable_device(), pci_enable_device_mem() or pci_enable_device_io()
is called during device initializations, so an early fixup call won't help either.
At this stage, the PCI HW is configured and a fixup call won't resolve the issue
unless another PCI command is sent to revert it
(generally not advised to execute again on hardware).
