Got it, we had a double-free in the PCIe port driver which was causing all sorts of problems.
I fixed that and now this patch series is stable enough for others to actually apply and test. As of now, there are no known bugs.
Of course, I'm going to keep testing and try to find some more bugs. :)
As a reminder, if you want to play with this series, you'll also need these two patches:
> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.pci/3437 > http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/7/173
And now this third patch:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.pci/3524
Finally, patch 07/11 needs to be updated. I'll post a reply to that mail with the updated patch.
Thanks.
