Hi,

I have this big box that takes forever to boot, so I use kexec to boot
into new kernels. Works fine, but some time past 2.6.32 it stopped
working. Instead of wasting brain cycles on finding out why, I handed
the problem to my trusty regression friend - git bisect.

This is what it found (sorry Yinghai it's you again, you owe me a beer
for hours of 2.6.32-git bisecting ;-)


99935a7a59eaca0292c1a5880e10bae03f4a5e3d is the first bad commit
commit 99935a7a59eaca0292c1a5880e10bae03f4a5e3d
Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>
Date:   Sun Oct 4 21:54:24 2009 -0700

    x86/PCI: read root resources from IOH on Intel
    
    For intel systems with multi IOH, we should read peer root resources
    directly from PCI config space, and don't trust _CRS.


I could not revert this single commit, as a further commit made other
changes. So I reverted 67f241f4 first and then 99935a7a. I confirmed
that this kernel then works fine.

With current -git, I get tons and tons of:

I can provide a full log if needed.
