A better workaround is to change the code in drivers/pci.c 
pci_find_devices() to loop through the devices and functions up to max-1 
as the ELPPC does.

So whatever the problem, it has been seen before. This new solution 
works for 0, 1 or 2 cards plugged in! I would still like to understand 
why this is required though.
