Hmm... that suggests that something in u-boot's setup is either
incorrect, or (more likely in this case) doesn't match the device tree.
Or maybe it's the bus parking/arbiter tweaking at the end that u-boot is
missing.

Ah. Yes, I was assuming both windows would be the same size. The code
should be changed to check that, and if any conditions for setting
PCIBRx/PCIMSKx fail, check to see if the firmware-provided values work
(and if not, bail without touching anything).

You shouldn't need it... I'd compare the register values u-boot sets
with the values the corrected fixup_pci() sets (including the soc regs
at the end). Something must be different.
There is no device tree re-writing; it tries to program the hardware to
match what's in the device tree.
