I'm sorry to be a nay-sayer, but I think we just haven't tried hard
enough.  Our ACPI/PCI/e820 resource management is not well integrated,
and I suspect if we straightened that out, we could avoid some of the
regressions we saw with previous attempts.

My fear is that we'll add this parameter, which is a relatively easy fix
for you.  Later we'll realize that telling users to boot with this or
that parameter, depending on what system they have and how they way to
use it, is not a sustainable strategy.  Then somebody else will be left
with the hard work of figuring out how to make Linux smart enough to do
it automatically.
