Hi,

Better late than never I guess..

Ok, despite being merged already I think its worthwhile to say that I've 
been testing this with:

Method(_DMA, 0, Serialized)
{
	Return (ResourceTemplate()
	{
		QWORDMemory(
		ResourceConsumer,
		PosDecode,          // _DEC
		MinFixed,           // _MIF
		MaxFixed,           // _MAF
		Prefetchable,       // _MEM
		ReadWrite,          // _RW
		0,                  // _GRA
		0x10000000,         // _MIN
		0x1fffffff,         // _MAX
		0x000000000,        // _TRA
		0x10000000,         // _LEN
		,
		,
		,
		)
	})
} // Method(_DMA)

(and a couple minor variations)

and a fair number of debug statements sprinkled around to verify that 
the IOVAs are appropriately limited. So I don't see anything wrong with 
the code and it appears to work and the devices behind a bridge limited 
like this continue to work as long as sane values are placed in the 
min/max/len fields.

Thanks,
