Top posting a related but separate item:

I looked up some old (2022-Dec-17) lspci -v output from
a Linux boot. Note the "Memory at" value 600000000 (in
the 35 bit BCM2711 address space) and the "(64-bit,
non-prefetchable)" (and "[size=4K]").

"Memory at 600000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable)":
Violation of a PCIe standard?
