The idea is:
1) caller specifies IORESOURCE_WINDOW to query resources provided
by the device, otherwise it's querying resources consumed by
the device.
2) For resource descriptors having producer/consumer flag, such as
ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_ADDRESSxx, we check the producer/consumer flag.
3) For resource descriptors not having producer/consumer flag, such
as ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_FIXED_MEMORY32, we skip checking the
producer/consumer flag.

I have searched ACPI spec 5.0 and PCI firmware spec 3.1, but haven't
found any statement tells whether Memory32Fixed could be used for
PCI host bridge resources yet. So to be honest, I'm not sure it's
legal or illegal:(

Thanks for reporting this, it's not intentional. Will check it.

I have checked IA64 when changing the resource parsing interface,
but there are obstacle to convert it to the new interface.
Will have another try.
Thanks!
