I'd prefer that bridge I/O & memory access enabling be done in a
mainline path, not in a fixup. Fixups are intended for working around
defects in specific devices, not for the normal path. I know various
architectures have fixups that are used in the normal path, but I've
been working on eliminating them.

We definitely shouldn't be calling the driver probe routine before the
device BARs are assigned.

I don't know what to apply your patches to (they don't apply cleanly
to v3.6-rc2), so I can't see exactly what you're doing. But it looks
like you might be calling pci_bus_add_devices() before
pci_bus_assign_resource(), which isn't going to work.
I don't know what it means to probe PCI devices before probing the PCI
controller (the host bridge) -- that shouldn't happen either. In
order to probe PCI devices, we have to first know about the host
bridge so we know how to do config accesses and what the bridge
apertures are.
