_CRS report those range are used devices under the peer root bus.

and in e820_reserve_resources_late, we are using insert_resource_expand_to_fit()
to register E820_RESERVED region.

could be that insert_resource_expand_to_fit doesn't work in that case.

like in the tree when we have
[    0.704003] pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0x000a0000-0x000bffff]
[    0.705002] pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0x000c0000-0x000effff]
[    0.706002] pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0x000f0000-0x000fffff]

and then insert_resource...
[0x9fec00, 0x100000)

it is not inserted to tree properly
