In subject, capitalize "Fix" and drop period at end.

Drop this.

7.5.1.3.8 is about PCI-to-PCI bridge windows, not host bridge windows.
I'm confused about what's going on here. The word "prefetch" doesn't
even appear in PCIe r7.0, but historically, issue was that we have to
be careful about putting a non-prefetchable BAR in a prefetchable
window because a read (which might be a prefetch) in a
non-prefetchable BAR is allowed to have side effects.
But if we put a prefetchable BAR in a non-prefetchable window, nothing
bad happens other than performance might be bad.
Are we trying to warn about a potential performance problem? Or is
there some functional problem here?

Are you seeing an issue here? Can we include a dmesg snippet that
illustrates it?

I gave you bad advice because I hadn't looked earlier in this
function. devm_of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources() printed this
earlier:
MEM %#012llx..%#012llx -> %#012llx
where the first part is basically the %pR information in a different
format and the last part is the bus address, and I think a warning
here should look similar, e.g.,
dev_warn(dev, "Bus address %#012llx..%#012llx end is past 32-bit boundary\n",
