need to check info->res_num less than PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES, so
info->bus->resource[info->res_num] = res will not beyond of bus resource array
when acpi resutrn too many resource entries.


Isn't this a bit of a problem? It sounds like PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES is to
small for that system? If so, some sort of dynamic allocation might be
needed.

sound reasonable...
i have one local patch for amd64 that will get resources from pci conf. and it will use all 8 slots for bus 0.
and transparent bus under it only can copy 5 of them.
