I think the problem here is that the Range Maximum should be
0xFDFFFFFF, not 0xFE000000, right?

We didn't actually *fix* anything here, so I guess we're just pointing
out the reason for a subsequent failure to claim the adjacent
resource.
As far as I know, the spec doesn't actually require resources of ACPI
devices to be non-overlapping. Windows accepts overlapping resources,
and I think Linux probably should, too, but right now we trip over
this.
In the meantime (until we figure out how to handle overlapping
resources better), can we do something to actually fix this? Maybe we
should truncate the end of the range to 0xFDFFFFFF like we do for
non-addressable parts of the range?
Is there a bugzilla or a complete dmesg log to look at?
