You do realise that this will result in all PCI I/O BARs being rounded
up to 64K.

I've just been digging through the PCI code and have come across a
function - pcibios_window_alignment() - which the PCI code allows to be
overriden which allows you to increase the alignment requirement of
bridge windows.  It takes the PCI bus and window type as arguments.

I'd suggest using that, and checking whether the bus which is passed
corresponds with a bus which gives you problems, so that you don't
impose the 64K requirement on downstream bridges.
