Ideally, yes, I think so. However that's not particularly
a requirement for the changes you're trying to make here:
at the moment what happens is that the pci controller
creates the PCI memory and io memory regions (or cheats
by reusing the system memory space[*]), passes them to
the PCI core code (via pci_bus_new) and then they're
the PCI code's responsibility to manage. So in the PCI
code you can ignore where they came from when you're
deciding how to manage these containers (and in this case
what you do is just create your default region and map
it in to the container at a suitable priority).
[*] I'm pretty sure this is a bug in all platforms that do it.
