Okay, I remember this now, it was annoying to debug because the PCI
driver inits before the serial port starts working, fortunately
Sebastian fixed that up, now it is much easier to see what is going
on..

The 0,0 write comes from this trace:

 [<c0111b58>] (mvebu_pcie_handle_iobase_change+0x0/0x140) from [<c0111e70>] (mvebu_pcie_wr_conf+0x1d8/0x318) r5:00000000 r4:c78d0850

 [<c01111ec>] (mvebu_pcie_probe+0x0/0x480) from [<c01335f0>] (platform_drv_probe+0x1c/0x20)

And specifically this code sequence in pci_bridge_check_ranges:

	pci_read_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, &io);
	if (!io) {
		pci_write_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, 0xf0f0);
		pci_read_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, &io);
 		pci_write_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, 0x0);
 	}
 	if (io)
		b_res[0].flags |= IORESOURCE_IO;

If I read this properly, the first sets the IO window to a 4k region
at 0xF000, and the second sets the IO window to a 4k region at 0x0.

How about this instead:

	if (!io) {
	        /* Disable the IO window by setting limit < base */
		pci_write_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, 0x00f0);
		pci_read_config_word(bridge, PCI_IO_BASE, &io);
	}
        /* Bridges without IO support must wire the IO register to 0 */
 	if (io)
		b_res[0].flags |= IORESOURCE_IO;

3.2.5.6 is clear that limit < base disables the decoder (however this
alone is not reliable if the upper 16 bits are programmed)

However, I'm guessing earlier in the sequence the PCI core clears
PCI_COMMAND_IO in the bridge command register? If so this isn't a
functional problem, it is just weird looking.

Which is the reason why my assert triggers, the driver ignores
PCI_COMMAND_IO/MEMORY.. Fixing that solves the issue completely.
