The are 2 *different*  _PRTs for 2 different hw components.
The look the same only because I *preferred* them to look almost the same,
I could implement it differently.
There is actually nothing common about
1. PIIX host bridge _PRT implemented statically
2. pcb-device _PRT implemented in code.

What is true is the series makes easier to implement dynamic _PRT
for any device, including PIIX host bridge. It doesn't mean we have two.

Actually we need to think about using the same code, because changing it
would influence both devices.

I really don't think they are related.
Thanks,
Marcel
