Given that all of the reports are in cases when the adjustment is *not*
being done (and only a message is being printed), I can only assume that
the breakage results from the adding of PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_SPACE_IO
into the resource flags. I considered this unconditional setting of the flags
odd already in the original code, and added this extra flag only for
consistency reasons (because the settings reported by X indicated that
this was missing). Perhaps the adjustment (original and the added
extra flag) shouldn't be done if IORESOURCE_IO wasn't already set.
Perhaps one of those seeing the issue could try out returning from the
function right after that printk(), without any adjustment to the flags.
