If we can make bcm2711_defconfig a fragment that applies to
bcm2835_defconfig then we are not maintaining a completely new
configuration file and we take advantage of all existing coverage from
bcm2835_defconfig. A completely new bcm2711_defconfig would be hard to
justify IMHO when multi_v7_lpae_defconfig is sort of what we would prefer.

BTW, if you register the PCI outbound window as part of 2711's machine
descriptor map_io callback, you should have it trickled down from
iotable_init() -> create_mapping() -> __create_mapping() ->
create_36bit_mapping which should allow the creation of such a mapping
into the 32-bit virtual address space of the kernel. You would not quite
be able to use the entire 4GB of DRAM in such a configuration because
your virtual address space already needs ~41MB of register space + 64MB
of PCIe outbound space but at least bcm2835_defconfig would keep working.

NB: this only works AFAICT if you do this at map_io() time, not sure if
ioremap() will accept a >= 4GB physical address.
