Thanks, will change.

This PCI controller supports only MSIx interrupts which are edge triggered.

Our hardware is an ECAM based host controller and doesn't support I/O
and prefetchable memory spaces.
All on-board PCI devices connected to this PCI controller have fixed resources
and doesn't have to be allocated/reassigned. Some of these devices are
SRIOV based.
Kernel's SRIOV (pci/iov.c) is expecting 'resource->parent' hierarchy
to be set, otherwise doesn't
enable SRIOV device. So, here multiple non-prefetchable ranges of root bus
aid in resource claiming and setting res->parent hierarchy.

We do call "pci_claim_resource" in controller driver code.
