The PLX PCI 9050 PCI Target bridge controller has a bug that prevents
its local configuration registers being read through BAR0 (memory) or
BAR1 (i/o) if the base address lies on an odd 128-byte boundary, i.e. if
bit 7 of the base address is non-zero.  This bug is described in the PCI
9050 errata list, version 1.4, May 2005.  It was fixed in the
pin-compatible PCI 9052, which can be distinguished from the PCI 9050 by
checking the revision in the PCI header, which is hard-coded for these
chips.

Workaround the problem by re-allocating the affected regions to a
256-byte boundary.  Note that BAR0 and/or BAR1 may have been disabled
(size 0) during initialization of the PCI chip when its configuration is
read from a serial EEPROM.

Currently, the fix-up has only been used for devices with the default
vendor and device ID of the PLX PCI 9050.  The PCI 9052 shares the same
default device ID as the PCI 9050 but they have different PCI revision
codes.

I assume the intent here is to make these BARs "unassigned" so they
will be reassigned later?  We don't yet have a clean generic way of
indicating "unassigned," so "r->start = 0" is the best we can do for
now.

I more-or-less copied the method from quirk_tc86c001_ide(). I don't have any prior experience with writing PCI quirks, so I don't know if this is the best way to do it! All I really care about is that these BARs don't have bit 7 set.

I think it'd be nice to have a dev_info() here to explain what's going
on.  Otherwise, the dmesg will be a bit mysterious.

OK, I'll add that in the next version of this patch.
