We should not disable memory decoding when we reassign alignment
in pci_reassigndev_resource_alignment(). It's meaningless and
have some side effect. For example, some fixup functions such as
quirk_e100_interrupt() read PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY to know whether
the devices has been initialized by the firmware or not. If we
disable memory decoding here, these functions will get a wrong
information that the devices was not initialized by the firmware
which may cause a wrong fixup. Besides, disabling memory decoding
may also break some devices that need to have memory decoding
always-on during probing.

It seems the changelog isn't correct enough if it's talking about
below check in code:

if (!(command & PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY) || !pci_resource_start(dev, 0))
	return;

Is there a problem you found with PCI_COMMAND removed? If so, could you
please share more details, thanks.

Could you give me more details?  It seems that we couldn't disable
e100 interrupts which enabled by some firmware if we disabling
memory decoding here.

Disabling memory decoding may break some devices which
have flag mmio_always_on. Besides the mmio_always_on case,
I also found this would break some P2P bridge such as
PEX 8718 controller.

Thanks,
Yongji
