Heh, indeed. Good catch - that
Prefetchable memory behind bridge: 0000000000000000-000000000fffffff
on device 00:01.0 does look totally broken, and it would make more sense if it matched what the device has (and what /proc/iomem resports).
That said, Intel bridges tend to be transparent even when they *claim* normal decode, so I wonder whether it actually matters in this case. But your patch looks very obviously right.
So maybe the rest of the kernel and X both already did everything right, and it was just this stupid bridge setup thing that was broken (and forcing the IOMEM resource to below the 4G mark just hid it).
