I think it's wrong that pbus_size_mem() fiddles with IORESOURCE_MEM_64
in bus resources based on where BARs of devices on that bus live. That
feels fragile.

The question of whether the bridge supports 64-bit apertures is
strictly a hardware property of the bridge. It has nothing to do
with where we place downstream devices.

Is there really a problem with writing to PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32
unconditionally? As Alex pointed out, per 3.2.5.10 of the bridge
spec, the UPPER32 registers are read-only if only 32-bit apertures
are supported. If you mentioned a problem with doing this
unconditionally, I missed it.

The only place we test IORESOURCE_MEM_64 for a bus resource is when
we're programming PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32. If we think it's important
to program it conditionally, why don't we skip IORESOURCE_MEM_64
altogether, and just look at the bits in PCI_PREF_MEMORY_BASE directly?
E.g., something like this:

pci_read_config_dword(bridge, PCI_PREF_MEMORY_BASE, &l);
if ((l & PCI_PREF_RANGE_TYPE_MASK) == PCI_PREF_RANGE_TYPE_64) {
pci_write_config_dword(bridge, PCI_PREF_BASE_UPPER32, bu);
pci_write_config_dword(bridge, PCI_PREF_LIMIT_UPPER32, lu);
}

Then we don't have to maintain flags at all, and it's easy to verify
that the code corresponds to the spec.
