Hmm. That was reported to break boot earlier already.

The breakage was supposedly fixed by three patches from Christian:

a19e2696135e: "x86/PCI: Only enable a 64bit BAR on single-socket AMD
Family 15h"

470195f82e4e: "x86/PCI: Fix infinite loop in search for 64bit BAR placement"

and a third one that was apparently never applied.

I'm not sure why that third patch was never applied, I'm including it here.

Does the system work for you if you apply that patch (instead of
reverting all of them)?

I wonder why that patch wasn't applied, but if it doesn't fix things,
I think we do need to revert it all.

Christian? Bjorn?

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86/PCI: limit the size of the 64bit BAR to 256GB
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This avoids problems with Xen which hides some memory resources from the
OS and potentially also allows memory hotplug while this fixup is
enabled.
