Why did you add the IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN flag? EA allows for unaligned resources.

pci_bus_assign_resources() fails causing the devices to be unusable
if resource_alignment() returns zero.  The easiest fix for this was
to specify IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN.

An alternative would be to change the code in setup-bus.c so that
for IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED resources, it didn't barf.

I would do this alternative, but with a IORESOURCE_PCI_EA flag.


I don't think we need IORESOURCE_PCI_EA. If a resource is tagged as IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED that means that it cannot be changed, we shouldn't care why it is fixed (due to an EA capability for example). We just need to gracefully handle IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED in the places where things currently go wrong.
