Hi Lorenzo,
	Sorry, the 'IORESOURCE_MEM_8AND16BIT' is leaked into this patch
from another bugfix patch. It should be removed.

Function pci_create_root_bus() moves resources from info->resources list
onto bridge->windows list, so an ACPI resource will be either on
info->resources or bridge->windows. Thus we need to deal with both
info->resources and bridge->windows.

On x86, node and segment may be overridden under certain conditions.
For example, segment will always be 0 if 'pci_ignore_seg' is set.

Yes. X86 uses flag 'pci_use_crs' to choose ACPI parsed resources or
other method parsed resources. This provides user a way to work
around some bios issues.
Thanks!
