p615 boot hang with current GIT kernel

I'm having trouble booting the current GIT tree on a p615. Not sure
if it is a .config problem or a real bug... There are a few boot messages
that look a bit strange and not sure if I should worry about:

Failed to request PCI IO region on PCI domain 0000
EEH: event on unsupported device, rc=0 dn=/pci at 400000000110/IBM,sp at 1


The system then hangs when trying to talk with the CDROM. I tried
removing the CDROM, and was then able to get to ipr loading, but
it isn't getting any PCI interrupts either... Not sure if this is
a PCI interrupt routing issue or not, but that is my hunch at this point.
I also tried disabling distributing interrupts to all CPUs, but
that didn't help either.

Attached is my boot log and .config.
