It'd be nice to have a DSDT archived and referenced in this changelog
for future reference. This sounds similar to previous issues:
3162b6f0c5e1 ("PNPACPI: truncate _CRS windows with _LEN > _MAX - _MIN + 1")
d558b483d5a7 ("x86/PCI: truncate _CRS windows with _LEN > _MAX - _MIN + 1")
f238b414a74a ("PNPACPI: compute Address Space length rather than using _LEN")
48728e077480 ("x86/PCI: compute Address Space length rather than using _LEN")
I assume your work fixes both these paths and avoids the issues we fixed above.
