Actually, I just want to make the code simple. Maybe it is
not a good idea to let users enable this option manually.
I will try to fix it like that:

I only set pci_resource_page_aligned when using magic wildcards
because I must make sure pci_resources_share_page() can return
correctly when a hotplug event happens.

For example, there is only one half-page resource in the system.
And we use a specific seg:bus:dev.fn to force it to be page aligned.
So we set pci_resource_page_aligned because all devices are page
aligned now. It will return false when we call
pci_resources_share_page() for this resource. But this return value
will be not correct if we hot add a new device which also have
a half-page resource which will share one page with the previous
resource.

Yes, I don't trust pci_resources_page_aligned. Because
resource_alignment will not work in some case, e.g.
PCI_PROBE_ONLY or IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED is set.

But I think *start* of the resource can give the positive
indication. The resource should not share page with
others if the start of the resource and its sibling are both
page aligned.

I made a mistake here. I will fix it in next version.

> I will try to fix it like that:

That's not entirely what I meant, I think having a way for a user to
enable it is a good thing, but maybe there need to be cases where it's
enabled automatically.  With 4k pages, this is often not an issue since
the PCI spec recommends 4k or 8k alignment for resources, but that
doesn't preclude an unusual device where a user might want to enable it
anyway.  At 64k page size, problems become more common, so we need to
think about either enabling it automatically or somehow making it more
apparent to the user that the option is available for this purpose.

That's a good point, it should be documented in a comment.

If you can't trust pci_resource_page_aligned then the alignment of
start seems like it only indicates that it's likely aligned, not that
it is aligned.

OK. I see. I will add a new arch-independent macro to indicate
the min alignments of all PCI BARs. And we can also specify the
alignments through the resource_alignment.

Sorry. I don't get your point why start of resource can't
indicates it's aligned.  The res->start is equal to the start of
allocated PCI address.  Shouldn't it mean mmio page of the
resource is exclusive if res->start is page aligned and
res->sibling->start - res->start > PAGE_SIZE?
