I was having a bit of a problem with this on my (DD1) zz. I naturally
saved all the logs and spent a whole bunch of time debugging. No,
wait, that would have been all useful or something.

Instead, I went "err... stopped in PCI in kernel, let's randomly pull this
patch out to see if it fixes it"... and then it booted.

Any ideas? Want to borrow the system to tell me I just saw something
random and rather that your code is perfect?
