I also got that on one Lenovo IvyBridge laptop but I had just updated the BIOS.
It was working before with older kernels. I am not sure what is going on here.
It will be easier to debug once I get my desktop Haswell back and setup with
serial console. Need to verify that the address of the BAR is the same compared
with older kernels.

Maybe Bjorn can shed some lights. Why would ioremap() die like this in the
latest 4.0 tree.
