This might be the right thing to do, but it feels hacky to add more
magic numbers (">= 0x180"), so I'd like to understand it better.
(Is there a bugzilla for this? Is it a regression? Sounds like an
old machine where we should have seen this before.)
My guess is that we found this "conflict" and tried to move the
controller, but it's hardwired to stay at 0x170 when in compatibility
mode. So the hardware is really still at 0x170, but Linux thinks it
moved it elsewhere, so it doesn't work.
The fixed IDE resources in pci_setup_device() make sense to me; I
think section 2.1 of the PCI IDE spec justifies specific OS knowledge
of the compatibility mode regions.
But I don't know the quirk_ich4_lpc_acpi() history, and this quirk
is the sort of information the OS should not have to know about.
Theoretically, ACPI tells us about the GPIO/TCO/etc. regions in a
generic way via namespace devices or something in the static tables.
Is that generic information missing, or is it there and Linux is
ignoring it? If we're ignoring it, I'd rather fix that.
The main reason for claiming I/O regions is to keep us from placing
another device on top of them. But we've had PCIBIOS_MIN_IO = 0x1000
forever, which should keep us from putting anything below that anyway
(at least for PCI devices). So there must be some other reason for
claiming space in this quirk.
