Could be resource exhaustion or, more likely, we ran out because we
now assign resource to things that don't need them, leaving none for
things that *do* need them.  This sounds like a regression, so we
should open a bugzilla for it and attach dmesg logs from 2.6.27 and
2.6.35.

Does this problem keep the driver from working?  (Sometimes drivers
don't actually use all the BARs a device supports.)
