Yes actually looking at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/arch/arm/boot/dts/spear1310.dtsi#L99
I can see that pci_addr=0 is mapped to bus_addr 0x80020000, so clearing 
the top 4 bits would alter the behaviour of the current designware 
SW framework...now I don't know if DW needs only the low 28b of that
value or not....

Jingoo, Pratyush what do you think?
