It looks like a bogus bridge aperture size is causing this to happen,
and this prevents reassignment on arm (bridge aperture is too big),
which proves that reading the bridge bases without vetting the corresponding
resources may break (on platforms that were not reading them before).

arm was the only platform not reading the bridge bases, here is an
answer why. So, to prevent reverting the commit I put together this
patch (to be reworked if we deem it reasonable), subject to discussion
(I fear it may end up breaking other arm platforms, I do not have all
ARM boards and required host controllers to test, I managed to test it on
an iMX6 Sabrelite though).

Here, please let me know if it works for you, I will keep on thinking
to find the best solution.

I will have to do this for arm64 too, comments very welcome.

Thanks,
Lorenzo

Subject: [PATCH] arm: kernel: pci: fixup erroneous PCI bridge apertures

Bridge apertures read by core PCI code through pci_read_bridge_bases()
might be erroneous (bogus platform setup). If the arch code does not vet
the bridge resources (ie by trying to claim them), we can end up in a
situation where wrong bridge apertures can prevent resources assignment
for downstream devices causing enumeration failures (eg a bridge
aperture does not fit in the respective host controller resource window,
so it can't be assigned).

This patch adds arm arch code that vets bridge resources by trying
to claim them, and reset them on claiming failure so that they can
be properly reassigned.
