W82C105_IDE: inconsistent baseregs (BIOS) for port 0, skipping
So that needs fixing too, then.
Both PCI core and IDE interpret a zero length resource as unassigned.
This is not about 0-length resource, this is about 0-address. Look at
ide_hwif_confiure() in drivers/ide/setup-pci.c...
That is probably better than clearing the flags in retrospect.
I'd agree here, that check in the IDE code seems like being too x86
specific. I'm having issues with it as well on MPC85xx/U-Boot...
setup-pci is for SFF8038i devices. It therefore knows that for assigned
resources they must be I/O. It also assumes that zero is not a valid I/O
port just like zero is not a valid IRQ.
You should know that the IRQ assumption is *not* true even for x86 since
IRQ0 is and has always been a perfectly valid IRQ (used by PIT).
Stick a real IDE resource at zero

Yeah, I've noticed. Unfortunately, a lot of PPC platforms (at least) are
doing exactly this...
