I *think* I understand what's going on - the kernel takes the primary,
secondary and subordinate values in the host bridge as valid in:

pci_scan_bridge_extend()

and given that pcibios_assign_all_busses() returns false (guess) it sets-up
the bus hierarchy with a bus resource with subordinate number as read from
PCI host bridge config space - which, given that it is 1 according to your
explanation - this triggers the issue you reported.

After commit a20c7f36bd3d the root bus resource is propagated down the
hierarchy, hence the problem.

So, in order to fix the issue I think the best way is to programme the
root bridge in:

drivers/pci/dwc/pci-designware-host.c

but with the value coming from the root bus IORESOURCE_BUS resource,
not hardcoding 0xff.

I would kindly ask you to send logs with debug turned on in:

drivers/pci/probe.c

since I would like to check my understanding is correct.

Please CC all dwc host maintainers since this has potential widespread
impact.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
