Take a look at arch/mips/au1000/pb1500/pci_ops.c for type 1 config
access. The patch was courtesy of David Gathright and apparently I
missed adding it in the db1500. Actually, we need to combine that code
because it's the same. Let me get through my eternal struggle of getting
the 36 bit patch applied (with Ralf's help I think a modified patch
should be ready this weekend) and then I'll worry about clean ups :)
