Out of curiosity, why shouldn't resources be claimed that early?
EA resources are fixed by hardware. They are always there & will never move.

Would it be better to modify pci_claim_resource() to support EA instead of adding pci_ea_claim_resource()?
That way, EA entries would be claimed at the same time as traditional BARs.
