Any ideas? This is the same problem as https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15744 The snippet below shows that BIOS left the 00:1f.2 BAR at [mem 0xff970000-0xff9707ff], which is not in any of the host bridge MMIO windows, so Linux moved it. Unfortunately, we moved it to 0xa0000, which was not a good choice. The patch here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=26149 (attached as comment #11 to 15744) should fix the problem. Let me know if it doesn't.
