ok, makes sense, will do it that way.

I wondered around with "32 bit phys" and "64 bit phys" struct definitions first,  but, well, it does not look good.
In fact it already verified with alike case (on 4xx), and I thought it would be fair tradeoff to have 64 bit ranges definition.

otoh, there might be cases when phys_addr_t is u64 and pci stuff resides on some 32-bit SoC bus. I will try to address that next iteration.
