Hi Steven, this is a tangent, but can you collect the complete dmesg
log with "pci=nocrs" and let me know what happens when you *don't* use
"pci=nocrs" (a complete dmesg log there would be useful too, but I
don't know if you can boot without it)? I think Linux *should* be
able to handle 64bit BARs even if the BIOS doesn't.

Please post these as a separate thread so we don't muddle this
conversation with Yinghai.
