Problem in PCI resource allocation with MPC8245

Hi,

I have a Freescale MPC8245 machine running Montavista Linux (kernel 2.4.20).
There are two devices connected to the PCI bus:
a USB host controller (VIA VT6212L) and a single-chip network switch
(Broadcom BCM5650).

Now BCM5650 is working but VT6212L is not.
I tried to modify the PCI code but met some problems.

Here are the PCI information and boot message:

It seems no problem with the allocated resource regions for VT6212L, but I
got "Timeout" message printed by USB driver.
So, I modify the function "mpc10x_bridge_set_resources" in
"arch/ppc/kernel/mpc10x_common.c":

 case MPC10X_MEM_MAP_B:
                        pci_init_resource(&hose->io_resource,
                                        0x00000000,
                                        0xffff,                       /*
original value: 0x00bfffff, */
                                        IORESOURCE_IO,
                                        "PCI host bridge");
--
and the defination of MPC10X_MAPB_PCI_IO_END in "include/asm/mpc10x.h":

#define MPC10X_MAPB_PCI_IO_END         (0x00010000 - 1)    /* original
value: (0x00c00000 - 1) */
--
After modification, the USB 1.x driver (UHCI) is working, and EHCI is still
not working.
BUT I don't know why the UHCI works if I  do the above modification?

The PCI information after modification is shown below:

Bus  0, device  17, function  0:
    Class 0c03: PCI device 1106:3038 (rev 97).
      IRQ 1.
      Master Capable.  Latency=128.
      I/O at 0xffe0 [0xffff].                          <-- I/O change to

      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xbffeff00 [0xbffeffff].

I do the modification for the PCI memory configuration similar to the
modification for PCI I/O configuration:

[arch/ppc/kernel/mpc10x_common.c]
case MPC10X_MEM_MAP_B:

                        pci_init_resource (&hose->mem_resources[0],

                                        0x000fffff,                 /*

                                        IORESOURCE_MEM,
                                        "PCI host bridge");

Surprisingly, after this modification, the USB2.0 driver (EHCI) can work.
BUT, the BCM5650 driver failed...

Here are the PCI information and boot message:

And the failure message during inserting BCM5650 driver into kernel is:

I have really no idea about this problem because I'm pretty new to PowerPC
and PCI architecture :'(
(So I think my modification may not reasonable)
Can anyone help me solve this problem ?
Any pointers and help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
Kenny
