Yep, this is the problem.  We ran out of I/O space.  We had 8K leading
to the switch, but 4K go to the Realtek NIC, and 4K go to SATA:

pci 0000:00:1c.3:   bridge window [io  0xb000-0xcfff]  to [bus 04-0d]
pci 0000:05:05.0:   bridge window [io  0xc000-0xcfff]  to [bus 09]
pci 0000:09:00.0: reg 0x10: [io  0xc000-0xc0ff]  Realtek NIC
pci 0000:05:09.0:   bridge window [io  0xb000-0xbfff]  to [bus 0d]
pci 0000:0d:00.0: reg 0x10: [io  0xb050-0xb057]  SATA

It seems like there *is* I/O space available in the system, so I'm not
sure why BIOS didn't assign enough here.  But it's still a bug that
Linux couldn't fix it.

Is there any way you can capture the output with a serial console or a
video camera?
