Ran this on master eea8fe61b8 (it still applies clean on bde2492aac).
riscv64 bios-tables-test passes. In the generated DSDT the PC0C _CRS
now comes out of build_crs() with the reserved window
0x70000000-0x7FFFFFFF and a bus range [0x0C,0x0D] taken from the real
subordinate, PCI0 shrunk to 0x40000000-0x6FFFFFFF, and the CEDT CHBS
and CFMWS matching the machine memmap. The machine-global window
synthesis and the +15 bus range from v2 are gone.

system_reset from the monitor leaves the root port with the same
window and secondary/subordinate numbers, so the reset handler does
what it says.

One larger question on 3/4 about where that enumeration should come
from, and a note on 4/4.
