IMO, this should be 0 for first cell as this is config space. What is
0xf0000000 as that's supposed to be an address in PCI address space.

I/O space at 4GB? It's only 32-bits. I guess this is already there
from the mvebu binding, but it seems kind of broken...

This says it is memory space, not config space. But the PCI binding
says config space is not allowed in assigned-addresses.

I think the parent ranges needs a config space entry with the BDF for
each root port and then this entry should be dropped. It really looks
to me like the mvebu binding created these fake PCI addresses to map
root ports back to MBUS addresses when BDF could have been used
instead.
