Are there no symbolic defines for these bits?
No.

  If there are, then
use them.  If not, then does it really help readability to assemble
the bits by hand?  Why not just use:

	if ((tmp8 & 5) == 5)
Ok, I will change it.

P.S.   The BIOS per se isn't to blame here.  If you dump pci space
from the EFI prompt (use "pci 0 1f 1") you'll see that the BIOS really
hasn't initialized the BARs at all.Perhaps some stuff in ACPI sets
them up (wrongly)?

Oops. I have a bad habit of usering BIOS/ & ACPI interchangeably .. sorry for the confusion.

I checked the BARs under EFI prompt. BAR 5 is 0 which looks like not
initialized by BIOS. But my opinion is BIOS really initiates BAR 5 as
0, or it should change it to non-zero but it doesn't.
Function pci_read_bases reads all 6 bars from the device configuraton
space and initiates dev->resource[]. When a BAR=0, if the sz (size) is not zero,
the resource[].start will be set to 0 and resource[].end will be set to
sz. resource[].flag is IORESOURCE_MEM. Such data is realy the same thing
we could see under /sys/devices/_bus_/_deviceid_/resource after kernel boot.

That behavior is also consistent with what Alan replied on linux-ide maillist.



IIRC, the case that Alan was talking about was a case where the powerpc arch had devices that required start =0, not this case where the ACPI table info is inocorrect.
P.

Below is the new patch. Thank Tony.

If ide controllers are at legacy mode, only the 4th BAR
is needed, so some BIOS initiate other BAR with incorrect
value. ata/ata_piix calls pci_enable_device on the ide
controller, which will check BAR resources. If the BAR
resource values are incorrect, pci_enable_device will fail,
and ata/ata_piix couldn't attach the ide controller.

Below patch against 2.6.20 creates a quirk to correct the
bad BAR resources for a special ide controller which is
popular on tiger-4.
