multiple separate pci bridges ...

The code you posted is awfully ugly...

I'll look at it in detail later.

pci_dev resources are read from the BARs and the sizing mecanism
uses the BARs too (you should filter out writes too btw). If you
properly filter things out, there should be no problem.

Interrupt pin is mostly useless. You may want to fill interrupt line
of the PCI cards with the value assigned by OF (or in any case, at
least make sure pci_dev->irq is properly filled).

Of what ? the bridge ? You surely need to let the system access the AGP
portion of it btw...

Use the DRM module from Michel snapshot, might help...

Could be irq not working...
