Well it has no way not to allow this, what happens
in this configuration is another matter.

Doesn't this mean versatilePB will have to have
similar code in it's PCI controller implementation -
outside PCI controller core?
Also, PCI bridge core code will care about this as well.

Right. I guess that's because most boards are not
as configurable as PCI.
