Commit 4d6b4e69a245 ("x86/PCI/ACPI: Use common interface to support
PCI host bridge") converted x86 to use the common interface
acpi_pci_root_create, but the conversion missed on code piece in
arch/x86/pci/bus_numa.c, which causes regression on some legacy
AMD platforms as reported by Arthur Marsh <arthur.marsh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
The root causes is that acpi_pci_root_create() fails to insert
host bridge resources into iomem_resource/ioport_resource because
x86_pci_root_bus_resources() has already inserted those resources.
So change x86_pci_root_bus_resources() to not insert resources into
iomem_resource/ioport_resource.

What's the status of this? It looks like a regression we need to fix
for v4.4.

AFAICT, Arthur did *not* test this patch (rather, his response says he
did test it and the test failed).

4d6b4e69a245 was merged by Rafael, and I assume he'll merge the fix
unless I hear otherwise.
Quite frankly, I'm more likely to revert the offending commit at this
point as that's not the only regression reported against it and the
fix only helps in one case (out of three known to me).
Hi Rafael,
I got regression report from Hans de Bruin<jmdebruin@xxxxxxxxx>,
Keith Busch <keith.busch@xxxxxxxxx>, and Arthur Marsh
<arthur.marsh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. Hans and Keith also reports
the patch fixes the regression. For Arthur's case, the debug
patch works for him, but the formal patch based on the debug
patch fails, so I need to do more investigation about this.
Is there any other report related to commit 4d6b4e69a245 so
I could help to investigate?

OK, so the proposed bug fix works for everybody, right?

In that case there's no reason not to apply it.

If there's anyone who can reproduce the problem and for whom that patch doesn't work, please let me know.

Thanks,
Rafael
