Can you describe the base address and size of this MMIO entry?

I don't see how it is possible to add such an entry in the first place
-- if you try to add it in PEI, via a HOB, then IIRC HobLib will
ASSERT(). If you try to add it with gDS->AddMemorySpace() in DXE, then
the call should fail.

I believe it might be useful to investigate this entry more closely.
Knowing the base address could help us.

Thanks!
Laszlo
