The BIOS can't configure the bars to 64 bit as it does not know which
type of OS (32 or 64 bits) is going to pick them up.
If it's a really large BAR, it has no choice. BTW, a 32-bit OS can
handle 64-bit BARs, all it needs is PAE or PSE-36.
But maybe 64-bit
Windows reconfigures the bars before it starts the driver. Would we
support this?
Yes. qemu doesn't know if it's the BIOS reprogramming the BARs or the
OS. Of course unmap+remap is not a heavily tested code path.
