PNP: disable Supermicro H8DCE motherboard resources that overlap SATA BARs
Some Supermicro BIOSes describe a SATA PCI BAR as a motherboard resource.
The PNP system driver claims motherboard resources, and this prevents the
sata_nv driver from requesting it later.
This patch disables the PNP0C01/PNP0C02 resources so they won't be claimed
by the PNP system driver, so they'll available for sata_nv.
This fixes the bugs below, where sata_nv detects only two out of four SATA
drives. The signature includes dmesg lines similar to these:
pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefc000-0xdfefcfff has been reserved
pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefd000-0xdfefd3ff has been reserved
pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefe000-0xdfefe3ff has been reserved
PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefd000 for device 0000:80:07.0
sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:07.0 failed with error -16
PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefe000 for device 0000:80:08.0
sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:08.0 failed with error -16
