Sorry for the resend, i messed up the to's en from's.

Hi Konrad / David,

One big snip on this thread, got some more debug info, hopefully this will
lead to something:

On a working kernel (with the two seemingly non related patches reverted) i get:

So somehow in the non-working situation, pdev->evtchn and pdev->gnt_ref are 0 in
xen-pcifront.c:do_pci_op(), so no wonder it's not getting a response back ...

Question is .. why ?
