First patch is fixing reading and setting ranges configuration from DTS.
Without first patch memory windows stays as they were in bootloader or
in its default configuration. Which is that all 128 MB are transparently
mapped to PCIe MEM space.

Therefore this second DTS patch does not fixes issue with IO space
(kernel still crashes when accessing it). But allows to use all PCIe MEM
space (due to bootloader / default configuration) and therefore allows
to use more PCIe cards (which needs more PCIe MEM space).
