I mean I can't get the existing S3 driver to talk to it at all.  The existing
driver assumes it's running on a real pc and I can't figure out the mapping.

current I use a serial console.

I can see the S3's pci space through the bridge, but I can't figure out
how to change the existing driver to talk it.
