While I understand the change, I find it is a bit of a "one-off"
solution, which will only work specifically for the MacchiatoBin. But
admittedly, there isn't really a good generic solution: depending on
the number of PCIe ports and what you connect to them, you will need
windows of different sizes.

On older Armada platforms, it works a bit better because we have a
single PCIe MEM aperture and a single PCIe I/O aperture, from which all
PCIe ports allocate: each PCIe interface is a child bus of an emulated
root port.

Unfortunately, on Armada 7K/8K, each PCIe interface is seen as an
independent root complex, so we have one PCIe I/O aperture and one PCIe
MEM aperture for each.
