x86/PCI: ignore Consumer/Producer bit in ACPI window descriptions
ACPI Address Space Descriptors (used in _CRS) have a Consumer/Producer bit that is supposed to distinguish regions that are consumed directly by a device from those that are forwarded ("produced") by a bridge. But BIOSes have apparently not used this consistently, and Windows seems to ignore it, so I think Linux should ignore it as well. I can't point to any of these supposed broken BIOSes, but since we now rely on _CRS by default, I think it's safer to ignore this bit from the start. Here are details of my experiments with how Windows handles it: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15701 Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>
