Thanks.

As far as the patch here goes, the relationship is very tight. I came to
make this patch only while investigating whether we couldn't have Dom0
report the resource (MMIO) ranges early enough for us to not even need
such fixing-up. Sadly, as per [1] that turned out pretty much impossible.
Which means that while I'm still pretty hesitant of us doing something
like this by default, I can't currently see a way around doing so. Hence
perhaps yes, we may want (or even need) to turn this on by default.
