Kevin, I suspect the oops you're seeing is due to the problem mentioned
here (add_pin_to_irq() is __init but shouldn't be):

    http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&start=75&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=fa.linux.kernel&c2coff=1&selm=fa.j8igrci.1fgg680%40ifi.uio.no

Can you try Randy's patch without using "pci=routeirq" and see whether
it resolves the oops?  Of course, the nvidia driver still won't work
because it's looking at pci_dev->irq before calling pci_enable_device(),
but that's a separate issue.
