I think the reason for having "posted-mmio" is that you cannot properly
define the PCI host controller nodes on the M1 without that: Since
nonposted-mmio applies to all child nodes, this would mean the PCI
memory space gets declared as nonposted by the DT, but the hardware
requires it to be mapped as posted.
