I'm sorry, by I/O reads I mean memory.  PA doesn't have any I/O port
cycles (except those which are generated in the busses via mmio
read/write sequences).

Yes, that's what crashes.  Any memory probe to a non-responding address
on PA causes a high priority machine check.  This is what trips us up.
We have to explicitly list the responding regions in the config file.
