Ok, I'll work on something along those lines.  FWIW, even though I sent
these as a series, each one stands on it's own.  While I think
reinstating RMRRs is the right thing to do, I don't know of any devices
that break with the current model (the device I know of with the
interesting RMRR usage shouldn't be demoted from the si_domain).  So
please consider pushing patches 2, 3 & 5 upstream (particularly 2).
Thanks,
