While they may quieten the faults, I don't think those faults are
pointless. They indicate some problem with the software (less
likely the hardware, possibly the firmware) that you're using.
Also there's the question of what the overall behavior is going
to be when devices are permitted to access unpopulated address
ranges. I assume you did check already that no devices have their
BARs placed in that range?
