This -v2 text doesn't belong in the changelog.  If you need it, it
should be in a cover message so it doesn't clutter the permanent git
logs.

I think this makes sense, but I think it should be in two separate
patches.  The first would be the pci_bus_alloc_resource() change, which
is of interest to all architectures, with a changelog like this:

  PCI: don't allocate from a BUSY bus resource

  Drivers typically use pci_request_regions() to reserve the resources
  they use, but that fails if the resource is already busy.  Therefore,
  we should ignore busy resources when we're assigning resources to a
  device.

and the second would be:

  x86/PCI: host bridge windows inherit BUSY flag from parent

  If a host bridge window falls inside a region the architecture has
  marked busy, the window should inherit the busy flag so we don't
  try to assign that region to a device.
