From: Brad Spengler <spender@grsecurity.net>
libpciaccess is not triggering such code though.
Signed-off-by: Tiago Vignatti <tiago.vignatti@nokia.com> --- Andy Getzendanner tried to fix this, but he seems did a wrong approach: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126112173704466
Andy: please test (and put your tag review!) this one instead. Thanks.
