PCI device BARs are guaranteed to start and end on at least a four-byte
(I/O) or a sixteen-byte (MMIO) boundary because they're aligned on their
size and the low BAR bits are reserved. PCI-to-PCI bridge apertures
have even larger alignment restrictions.
However, some BIOSes (e.g., HP DL360 BIOS P31) report host bridge windows
like "[io 0x0000-0x2cfe]". This is wrong because it excludes the last
port at 0x2cff: it's impossible for a downstream device to claim 0x2cfe
without also claiming 0x2cff. In fact, this BIOS configures a device
behind the bridge to "[io 0x2c00-0x2cff]", so we know the window actually
does include 0x2cff.
This patch rounds the start and end of apertures to the appropriate
boundary. I experimentally determined that Windows contains a similar
workaround; details here:
