The pcie host bridge has no io window on microvm,
so io reservations will not work.

I don't much like overriding user like this. We end up users
setting it to silly values and then if we do want to
support this things just break. Thoughts?

Well, it just looked like the simplest way to tell the firmware that io reservations are pointless. Do you have a better idea? take care, Gerd

Let's just not override the user. Ok, so I could use a compat property instead and change the default for microvm that way. That would allow the user set any value it wants. I still don't see the point though. There is only a single value which makes sense on microvm. Which is zero. The only effect the user could archive is make the firmware throwing errors ... take care, Gerd

Then if down the road we want to intepret != 0 in some way, these setups will start failing. I don't claim to see a use-case why we'd want to but it's hard to predict the future with certainty. -- MST
