Thank you for the explanation. I also looked at the PCI-to-PCI Bridge
spec to understand where some of the limitations are coming from.

IIUC, the host bridge's configuration (64-bit on non-prefetchable
window) is based on what the hardware advertises.

Can you elaborate on what you have in mind to correct the
non-prefetchable resource window? Are you thinking of adding a quirk
somewhere to address this?

I am happy to put something together once I understand the preferred way
to go about it.

Thanks,
Punit
