Stefano,
My patch is not intrusive and it appears several people are wanting it. Why not accept my patch which will end up getting re-written once the PCI driver is moved to DM?
Well, most drivers are already moved to DM and there is a clear path to go on in this direction. It is not strange or something special with PCI driver. I am just asking if there is a volunteer to take over the job (I understand that we are all quite busy, but Jagan offers himself as volunteer). I fully agree that it is bad to let it broken, and I will merge this as it is if there will not a patch in time for release.
As promised: I merge it and moving to DM can be done in a follow-up patch when someone has time for it. In the meantime, this fix a grave issue.
Applied to -master, thanks !
Best regards, Stefano Babic
