That's already set by of_bus_pci_get_flags(). This is separate from your current patch, of course. 29b635c00f3e ("of/pci: Provide support for parsing PCI DT ranges property") added struct of_pci_range, and even at the time, of_bus_pci_get_flags() set IORESOURCE_PREFETCH in of_pci_range.flags. 654837e8fe8d ("powerpc/pci: Use of_pci_range_parser helper in pci_process_bridge_OF_ranges") converted powerpc to use of_pci_range_parser() instead of parsing manually. It converted other references to look at struct of_pci_range.flags; I'm not sure why it didn't do that for the prefetch bit.

Between the root > complex and the CPU there can be intermediate translation layers: I can't quite parse this, but I do understand how a host bridge can translate CPU physical addresses to a different range of PCI bus addresses. What I don't understand is the difference between "pci_addr" and the "bus_addr" you're adding. > see that to > get pci_address we call "of_translate_address"; this will apply all the > translation layers (ranges in the DT) that it finds till it comes to the root > node of the DT (thus retrieving the CPU address). > Now said that, for designware we need the first translated PCI address, that we call > here bus_addr after Rob Herring suggested the name...honestly I cannot think of a > different name > > > > > I'm trying to imagine how this might be expressed in ACPI.
