Exactly, we /try/ to force a certain AGP mode. But if we end up
pushing x0 to the bridge, that is not successful. I don't think we
ever want to set x0 for any reason. Of course, it is possible that in
some cases 0x magically work, and that the quirked rate that we tried
to set will not work, but then we should fix that quirk.
