I have a little confusion about what you said. You said I should disable
prefetched window corresponds to PCI Bridge to [bus 02-ff], the dmesgs shows
that it is already disabled.

pci 0001:01:00.0: PCI bridge to [bus 02-ff]
pci 0001:01:00.0:   bridge window [io  0x0000-0x0000] (disabled)
pci 0001:01:00.0:   bridge window [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] (disabled)
*pci 0001:01:00.0:   bridge window [mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff pref]
(disabled)*

Is it something that I am not getting right or you have miss read something?
If it is problem with me, then what should be the O/P in case when I disable
the prefetch window (by issuing pci_write_config_word(dev,
PCI_PREF_MEMORY_BASE, 0); and pci_write_config_word(dev,
PCI_PREF_MEMORY_LIMIT, 0); function calls)? And also, I will be really
thankful to you if you also tell me the function in which I should place
there function calls as I am new to linux device driver programming.

Regards,
Ravi
