please check the draft one, not sure if you like
pci=try=2
or
pci=reallocate_bridge
[PATCH] pci: disable pci trying to reallocate pci bridge by default.
| PCI: update bridge resources to get more big ranges when allocating space (again)
| da7822e5ad71ec9b745b412639f1e5e0ba795a20
still too risky and cause some systems have problem.
Disable reallocating feature, So other user could use command line enable it
to enable it with "pci=try=2"
