New day - new fresh mind. Today morning I found a pretty way to fix this
problem.=20

In arch/ppc/platforms/apus_pci.c the resource region with P2 Mem is being
allocated two times (so it fails during the second allocation): first tim=
e
in apus_pcibios_fixup(), second in apus_pcibios_fixup_bus() (this funtion
assigns P2 Mem resource to the bus and later other PCI functions try to
allocate it). I simply removed (commented out) resource allocation from
apus_pcibios_fixup() and now everything work fine without touching the
generic pci code. :)) Could I commit this patch, or do You have any
questions/advices?

I removed the second bug - which bug will be the next? ;)
