: You could just use the same tunable for both drivers so it's perhaps less 
: confusing and easier for users (they set the same variable for both ACPI and 
: non-ACPI cases).  I would vote for just 'hw.pci.host_mem_start'.

I made them different because I wanted to expose the tunable value as
a read-only sysctl.  If I made them the same, I couldn't do that.
