Oh, I see.  pcibios_fixup_bus() copies the hose resources to the root
bus pci_bus structure.  I think that's bogus because we have the
interval between mips_pcibios_init() and pcibios_fixup_bus() where the
root bus resources are incorrect.

I think it would be better to set up the resources correctly right
away, as we do on x86.  In fact, I'm dubious about pci_create_bus()
filling in ioport_resource and iomem_resource as defaults -- that's
never what we really want there, and we have to rely on the arch
coming back later to fix it up.

I'd like to see some sort of restructuring there so we could pass in a
list of resources at the time we create the bus.
