Unfortunately this didn't change anything at all. As well as adding the
PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC flag. But while testing I've found the
ppc_md.pcibios_fixup_resources hook. I'll try to manually assign resources in
there or clear them and call the pci core's ressource allocation code. I'll post
an update once I make any progress.
