And yes, this is the dedicated PCI MMIO address I mentioned.. I would update 
the comments to get it more clear.

I don't think it's very clear solution, because the real good way to do this 
is probe pci device and find out with one is the platform pci device then use 
it. But the grant table initialization is quite earlier compared to the 
possible probing now... I hardcode the position now, and hunting for a better 
idea.

Comments?
