That isn't strong enough, IMHO, since status=disabled is the default
for most every DTS item.  Maybe you could comment the PCI block out or
remove it and put a comment in about the missing piece and the lock up
behavior.  It is really a nasty bug to have the machine freeze up with
no output at all.  It took me some time to figure out what was going
on, and it would be a shame if someone else sets status=okay in their
board file and has to repeat the whole exercise.

Thanks,
