DWC resources handling is broken beyond belief. In practical terms, I think the best thing I can do is dropping: 9e73fa02aa00 ("PCI: dwc: Warn if MEM resource size exceeds max for 32-bits") from my pci/dwc branch. However, the ATU programming API must be fixed and this reliance on DT entries ordering avoided - it is really bad practice (and it prevents us from reworking kernel code in ways that are legitimate but would break owing to DT assumptions). So yes, the DWC host bridge code must be updated asap - this is not acceptable. Thanks, Lorenzo
