E.g. there are two functions , func0 is HDA controller and func1 is I2S
controller and they have shared pins.
When HDA or I2S is used, both are disabled for PCI enumeration in BIOS
(e.g. by filling PCI header with 0xffffffff), and mem space has been
reserved from host bridge window for them in BIOS, of cause, reserved
space will not be seen by kernel because it has been removed in host
bridge mem range when passed to kernel in DT. Then the reserved mem base
is passed into kernel by DT, CPU will use remapped address of the mem
base, and these devices will not be enumerated in PCI bus. The way is
only used for PCI devices (share common pins and exist on bus 0)
integrated in Loongson CPU or chipset.
