Well, it's not that easy.  As the other mapping is part of an ordinary 
BAR, you need to setup the device (at least PCI_COMMAND and 
PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_0) so it responds to memory requests, and also enable 
the bridge.

We could hack it by having a low-priority mapping at 0x80013000, but it 
seems wrong.  Maybe the firmware should configure that BAR first?  What 
happens on real hardware?
