Let me ask this another way. When would a 0 memory or i/o address ever
work? It doesn't seem this s/w limitation has anything specific to
Risc-V. Given pci_iomap_range() rejects 0, I can't see how it could
ever work. Maybe only for legacy ISA? So should the generic defaults
just be what Risc-V is using instead of 0?
