I may miss sth so please correct me in that case.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/12/3/426 shows that you need special handling 
for root->secondary.start bus number only, right? So how about creating 
special MCFG region <rc-base:rc-base+rc-size> only for <segment,bus>. 
Like that:

[0008]                       Base Address : <rc-base>
[0002]               Segment Group Number : <segment>
[0001]                   Start Bus Number : <root->secondary.start>
[0001]                     End Bus Number : <root->secondary.start>
[0004]                           Reserved : 00000000


static const struct dmi_system_id hisi_quirk[] = {
	{
		.ident = "HiSi...",
		.matches = {
			DMI_MATCH(<whatever you need to match your platform>),
		},
	},
	{ }
};

static struct pci_ops hisi_ecam_pci_ops = {
	.map_bus = pci_mcfg_dev_base,
	.read = hisi_pcie_cfg_read,
	.write = hisi_pcie_cfg_write,
};

DECLARE_ACPI_MCFG_FIXUP(hisi_quirk, &hisi_ecam_pci_ops,
			<segment>, <bus>);

With above code you can use your custom PCI config accessor only for 
that region.

Let me know if that is not enough for you.
