That happens when someone without much clue about this device tree
thingy hacks fragments together from all over the place (wouldn't have
happened if the related specs were more readable). The problem was with
the width of the interrupt-map parent part. This now works:

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;
/ {
	compatible = "lemaker,bananapi", "allwinner,sun7i-a20";

	fragment {
		target-path = "/soc@01c00000";
		__overlay__ {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <1>;

			vpci@2000000 {
				compatible = "pci-host-ecam-generic";
				device_type = "pci";
				bus-range = <0 0>;
				#address-cells = <3>;
				#size-cells = <2>;
				#interrupt-cells = <1>;
				interrupt-map-mask = <0 0 0 7>;
				interrupt-map = <0 0 0 1 &gic 0 123 4>,
						<0 0 0 2 &gic 0 124 4>,
						<0 0 0 3 &gic 0 125 4>,
						<0 0 0 4 &gic 0 126 4>;
				reg = <0x2000000 0x100000>;
				ranges =
					<0x02000000 0x00 0x10000000 0x10000000 0x00 0x30000000>;
			};
		};
	};
};

I'm sure there are more hidden bugs in this fragment, anyway:

linux:~ # cat /proc/interrupts 
           CPU0       CPU1       
...
126:          0          0     GIC-0 155 Level     ivshm-net

Yeah... Time to wire things up in the hypervisor.
