Note that this was fixed fairly recently in EDK2, so BIOS vendors
providing UEFI firmware for ARM platforms with outbound MMIO
translation should probably incorporate this EDK2 patch

commit dc080d3b61e570e7a3163fc24afa6f8388d0c0bf

    MdeModulePkg/PciBus: return CPU address for GetBarAttributes

    According to UEFI spec 2.7, PciIo->GetBarAttributes should return host
    address (CPU view ddress) rather than device address (PCI view
    address), and
    device address = host address + address translation offset,
    so we subtract translation from device address before returning.

Note that this is not the only MMIO translation related change made by
Heyi Guo to the generic PCI host bridge and bus drivers, but given
that those did not support MMIO translation at all, I take it your
affected platforms will already have their own changes to accommodate
this.
