[Question] PCIe bridge representation

I have a custom embedded board using the PPC405EX. On one of the PCIe
controllers, there is a PLX PCIe switch (PEX8613). Downstream from that
are two ASICs.
When I attempt to load the driver for the ASICs, I get an error:
0001:43:00.0: device not available because of BAR 0 [0xa1000000-0xa1ffffff] collisions
My device tree is basically copied from the Kilauea evaluation board.
The ranges property for the host bridge is:
ranges = <0x02000000 0x00000000 0x80000000 0x90000000 0x00000000 0x10000000
0x01000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0xe8010000 0x00000000 0x00010000>;
The strange thing is, the ASICs should be assigned addresses in the
0x90000000 space, not 0xa1000000.
So I'm wondering if I need something explicit in the device tree to
describe the PCIe switch, and possibly the ASICs as well.
I'll note in passing that a previous custom board we built used a PCI bridge
chip instead of the PCIe switch. On that board, nothing special was needed.
The addresses were allocated in 0x90000000 as expected.
