In my case, the first allocated buffer is the firmware buffer,
and its not released.

Agreed. But if two or more non PCI devices share the same domain,
and though one of the devices has higher addressable limit,
the current logic forces it to take the lower window.

This patch addresses my problem indirectly. Shall add my concerns there.
