Right but we can make things better by also effectively allowing non
-prefetch BARs to sit in the prefetchable window of a bridge.

The above patch was about avoiding 32-bit prefetchable, it's not about
64-bit non-prefetchable.

Right, in the long run, both us and x86 might need to be able to do
that, though exclusively for PCIe. PCI/PCI-X bridges can prefetch.
