then please check this one

update e820 at first, and later put them resource tree, but give pci BAR chance to claim
the range, before assign unassigned resources.

in case some system doesn't have VGA, and use [0xa0000, ..] for mmio of some other pci devices.

Subject: [RFC PATCH] x86: reserve [0xa0000, 0x100000] in e820

And put those range in resource tree after pci BAR claim those range
