On UEFI systems, the PCI subsystem is enumerated by the firmware,
and if a graphical framebuffer is exposed by a PCI device, its base
address and size are exposed to the OS via the Graphics Output
Protocol (GOP).

On arm64 PCI systems, the entire PCI hierarchy is reconfigured from
scratch at boot. This may result in the GOP framebuffer address to
become stale, if the BAR covering the framebuffer is modified. This
will cause the framebuffer to become unresponsive, and may in some
cases result in unpredictable behavior if the range is reassigned to
another device.

So add a quirk to the EFI fb driver to find the BAR associated with
the GOP base address, and set the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED attribute so
that the PCI core will leave it alone.

How does it currently work on eg x86 ? I suspect it just works because
on x86 resources are claimed at boot and if the FB memory BAR contains
reasonable values it is left alone by the kernel code reassigning
resources on x86.

You are checking for a live resource here right (ie PCI device should be
enabled) ? I am not sure that just checking the resource range is safe
(I mean it would be most certainly a FW bug to have a PCI disabled
device with memory BAR programmed with the FB addresses but thought it
was worth mentioning).

This is my understanding, yes.

It is implied that the device is enabled. The GOP protocol exposes a
live framebuffer base/size with some metadata regarding the pixel
format/color depth etc. It contains no annotations as to whether the
device is PCI or simply a framebuffer mapped in system memory, and so
we can only assume that the device is enabled.

That's why I think you should actually check that the device memory
cycles are enabled to prevent setting a fixed resource for the wrong
PCI device (we could argue that would be a FW bug - better play it
safe though).
