I have assumed that some drivers or user level apps may
need to access this space. Is this not true?
If this is due to my change, sorry for the trouble.

So far, I have only tried the changes on one single node
system (IBM x3850) but the below NAK-worthy result supports
the idea that the changes need to be well and widely tested.
Have you possibly considered a kernel option as a kinder and
gentler way of introducing the changes?

Yea, with the current fixed size pci_bus resource array
I believe you would need to increase PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES
from 8 to 11 for the transparent bridge child bus to get
all 8 _CRS returned resources.
Ga
cation certainly makes sense.
Note that exposure to this issue is currently limited to those
that use the 'pci=use_crs' kernel option.
