Hi Thomas,

Can you post the entire dmesg log, ideally with CONFIG_PCI_DEBUG=y?
That should have more information about the enumeration process,
including what we think the XHCI BARs are and the apertures leading to
them.

The PCI core assumes that we know the host bridge apertures up front,
and I'm not sure that is true on your platform, so maybe we'll need
some changes to accommodate that.
