Ok, so the patch is interesting and probably worth expanding on (to
actually allocate the regions), but at the same time it too doesn't
actually explain your problems.

While the kernel doesn't know about that magic 0x680 allocation, it also
won't be allocating anything over it, since we define PCIBIOS_MIN_IO to
0x1000 on x86, and will never allocate new resources under that.
