Subject: [PATCH] PCI probe: fix "can't handle 64-bit address space for bridge" on x86-32 PAE

If sizeof(long) is 4 bytes but sizeof(phys_addr_t) is 8 bytes, don't
fail to configure a bridge for PCI prefetchable memory space that
extends beyond 4GB.  The problem was encountered on an embedded system
using a Freescale MPC8536 PowerPC processor.  The problem is possible
on x86-32 systems with PAE, although it has not been observed in the
wild.

This patch preserves the current behavior for any oddball systems on
which sizeof(long) is 8 bytes and sizeof(phys_addr_t) is 4 bytes.
