After applying the 2 patches to 2.6.33-rc7, I get the following:

ACPI: bus type pci registered
PCI: MMCONFIG for domain 0000 [bus 00-09] at [mem 0xe0000000-0xe09fffff] (base
0xe0000000)
PCI: MMCONFIG at [mem 0xe0000000-0xe09fffff] reserved in E820
PCI: Using configuration type 1 for base access
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
turning off the locking correctness validator.

This dump does not occur with standard 2.6.33-rc7. As the above turns off the
locking correctness validator, I cannot really test to see what happens when
suspending.
