also would have problem on transparent bridges, like

\-- BRIDGE_AB ---DEVICE_AB

if only BRIDGE_A and BRIDGE_AA are transparent, and BRIDGE_AB is not.

and if pci_bridge_supports_io() return false for BRIDGE_A.

We will have all three bridges have PCI_BUS_FLAGS_SUPPORTS_IO cleared.
so all will not been sized and will not get assigned io port resource.

later DEVICE_AA could root bus io port as parent, and get io resource assigned.
but DEVICE_AB will not get assigned.

so we should get rid of pci_bridge_supports_io(), and just check root
resource IO port.

I would suggest this version instead:

Subject: [PATCH] PCI: Only try to assign io port only if root bus support that


Bjorn had asked me to move the IO support check out of pci_bridge_check_ranges().
It looks like you want to keep it there.

Can you explain your reasons ? Sorry, I just don't understand.
