It is the root port which is modeled as a P2P bridge. The root port(s)
together with the host bridge is what makes up the root complex.

AIUI, the problem is not that the device requires a non-prefetchable
bus address, but that it fails to allocate a 32-bit BAR from a 64-bit
non-prefetchable window.
