A powepc pci_controller is allowed three memory ranges, any of which may be prefetchable. However, the PCI-PCI bridge configuration space only has one
field for "non-prefetchable memory behind bridge", which has a 32 bit
address, and one field for "prefetchable memory behind bridge", which may
have a 64 bit address.  These are PCI bus addresses, not CPU physical
addresses.

So really you're only allowed one memory range of each type. And if you
want the range at a PCI address above 32 bits you must make it
prefetchable.
