I think most of the time it should work fine, but we have some hard-coded
addresses where the chipset is expected to live in early setup routines, and
they might break.

My resource map sets:
DRAM mappings for each node
MMIO mappings for each HT chain
PCI IO mappings for each HT chain
PCI Bus numbers for each HT chain

I think they should only be needed for things like ck804_early_setup_car.c,
where I/O is being used and set up.  If the mappings aren't configured the
reads and writes don't reach the chipset.

I don't know.  Once resource allocation is done you should know where your
VGA card is, and where your Southbridge is.  I'm probably missing something,
but I think once resource allocation is done all of the registers that are
touched in the resource map have been rewritten.
