The BAR programming should be happening in:

drivers/pci/host/pcie-designware.c

494 void dw_pcie_setup_rc(struct pcie_port *pp)
495 {
[...]
532 
533         /* setup RC BARs */
534         dw_pcie_writel_rc(pp, 0x00000004, PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_0);
535         dw_pcie_writel_rc(pp, 0x00000004, PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_1);

Or am I mistaken?

I got it working in U-Boot, but the PCI stack there is ported from older kernel 
version and the MX6 PCIe driver is entirely custom (even though it's copying the 
behavior of the MX6 PCIe driver in kernel).

I managed to detect the whole topology in U-Boot:

  00:01.0     - 16c3:abcd - Bridge device
   01:00.0    - 12d8:2303 - Bridge device
    02:01.0   - 12d8:2303 - Bridge device
     03:00.0  - 8086:1531 - Network controller
    02:02.0   - 12d8:2303 - Bridge device

The 00:01.0 is the MX6 root bridge , the 01:00.0 is the switch's upstream port, 
02:01.0 and 02:02.0 are the downstream ports and the 03:00.0 is the ethernet 
controller.

I suspect the PCIe works without issues here.

I checked the pcie-designware.c code and maybe this is where this is set up?

543         /* setup bus numbers */
544         dw_pcie_readl_rc(pp, PCI_PRIMARY_BUS, &val);
545         val &= 0xff000000;
546         val |= 0x00010100;
547         dw_pcie_writel_rc(pp, val, PCI_PRIMARY_BUS);

Will try. I can also try reverting this or the whole set:

    * pci/yinghai-assign-unassigned-v6:
      PCI: Assign resources for hot-added host bridge more aggressively
      PCI: Move resource reallocation code to non-__init
      PCI: Delay enabling bridges until they're needed
      PCI: Assign resources on a per-bus basis
      PCI: Enable unassigned resource reallocation on per-bus basis
      PCI: Turn on reallocation for unassigned resources with host bridge offset
      PCI: Look for unassigned resources on per-bus basis
      PCI: Drop temporary variable in pci_assign_unassigned_resources()

Would that help maybe?

Could it be a bug in the PCIe subsystem then ?

It is there somewhere around the middle of the log I pasted, see:

-->8--
pci_bus 0000:01: scanning bus
pci_bus 0000:01: fixups for bus
PCI: bus1: Fast back to back transfers enabled
pci_bus 0000:01: bus scan returning with max=01
pci_bus 0000:01: busn_res: [bus 01-ff] end is updated to 01
pci_bus 0000:00: bus scan returning with max=01
pci_bus 0000:00: busn_res: [bus 00-ff] end is updated to 01
--8<--

Thank you for the help!
