OK, but you're looking at the wrong place for that. The only actual 
relevant reference would be rule PCI_MM_06 in the BSA[1], which says 
that PCI memory space should not be translated relative to the system 
address map. It is hopefully obvious that 32-bit devices need 32-bit PCI 
mem space to assign to their BARs, thus it falls out that if there is no 
translation, that requires a 32-bit window in system address space too.

That is of course speaking of a BSA-compliant system. Vendors are still 
free to not care about BSA and do whatever the heck they want.

Thanks,
Robin.
