I did some work upstream but it became too complicated. Others have also tried but nothing has changed. In the meantime the hardware out there that has a 32-bit limit imposed by its southbridge on 64-bit CPUs is all now old legacy gear so I don't foresee the kernel fixing this, ever.

It still remains a problem for the hardware out there still in use where the user wants to install and use the maximum RAM possible but the 32-bit limitation prevents the PCIOMEM addresses being remapped above the 4GB boundary.
