What's happening with this?

There are large-scale and conflicting changes to this file in linux-next.

If we want to jam this fix into 2.6.29 (and it looks like something we
want) then this will trash the linux-next changes. It will cause me
grief, and will cause Stephen grief unless the pci tree is suitably
changed, which will cause Jesse grief. Either way: grief.
