Just to be sure we are talking about the same thing: "PCIe memory
mapped IO" could refer to either PCI I/O space or PCI memory space.

As far as I can tell, PCI memory space should *not* be using the nE
attribute, while PCI I/O space and PCI config space should.
Does this match what your HW team recomments?
