Ok, so I just added a

	if (dev == NULL)
		dev = pdn->pcidev;

To eeh_dn_check_failure(), and that fixes one of the NULL (name
printing), but I get another one a bit later, in pci_find_capability
called from eeh_slot_error_detail called from handle_eeh_events.
(Probably in gather_pci_data).

One thing that looks suspicions is that just before that I see:

EEH: of node=/pci/@8000000200000d3/pci at 2,4

Which is not a device but the bridge above it... not sure why, maybe we
have a NULL pdn->pcidev at that level.. we should probably not sure
pci_find_capability in that code anyway and implent our own version
using RTAS in case we don't have a pci_dev around, don't you think ?

Cheers,
Ben.
