It looks like there is a lot of lessons learnt here from history. I think this requirement is only true if your system DDR space and PCIe space overlaps in the memory map. I understand that Intel systems allow sharing of these two memory ranges. An OS could potentially reclaim this address range. If there is no overlap and PCI is not enabled, there can't be any SW entity to reclaim this space.
