Fix two systems, break another...

Nick, can you open a bugzilla on this and put your lspci -vv
and dmesg into it.  Apparently the quirk is good for some
machines and not as good for others and we need to get smarter
about when to apply it.

thanks,

OK, done. I put it under ACPI though I'm not sure whether that's
the right place for it.

VIA PCI routing problem

Hi,

Sorry in taking so long to track this down. I just got motivated
today.

I have a VIA SMP system and somewhere between 2.6.12-rc3 and 2.6.12
the USB mouse started moving around really slowly. Anyway, it turns
out that the attached patch (against 2.6.13-rc3-git8) fixes the problem.

Let me know if any info is needed or if you would like me to test a
patch.

This is a regression versus 2.6.11 so it would be good to have a fix in
2.6.13.

Thanks,
Nick

Can you try this:

If that doesn't help, remove it and see if this does:

Can you also include "lspci" output?

Neither worked. I'll open a bugzilla and include lspci and dmesg there.
