Needed to make pci_iomap() work.

Care to elaborate?


I should have explained what I am doing here a little better.

Systems based on the Cavium ThunderX processor may have up to 8 independent PCIe root complexes. The I/O space on each bus occupies an independent physical address window.

So, in order to be able to map all of these (semi) contiguously, we need a lot more virtual address space than is supplied by the default values for all these constants.

The option I chose here was to unconditionally expand the I/O ranges for all arm64 systems. If you think this breaks existing systems/drivers, I will have to look for other options.

AFAICT, mapping an IO bar on arm64 just gives you back a VA into our
PCI_IOBASE region and the ioreadX accessors will just call the readX
macros, so there should be no need for further port adjustment.
