These patches (from the above BZ) aren't right for one thing: You
shouldn't set the IORESOURCE_PREFETCH in the resource itself. This
*will* break stuff.

You can put the resource in a prefetchable region indeed, if you
are on a PCIe-only path (though we should have some arch flag
to check that the host bridge indeed doesn't do any prefetch,
on powerpc we are good there).

But you can't set the "prefetch" bit on the resource because that would
be losing the indication that this resource has side effects. This bit
is used in some cases to enable store gathering when mmap'ing via sysfs
and can be used for similar uses by drivers.

It's one thing to say "you can put non-prefetch BARs in prefetch windows
on that path", it's another one to completely make the BAR looks like
it's prefetchable when it's not.

Cheers,
Ben.
