Hi, I've run into a situation where I've been getting a lock-up a few
seconds into the boot process on a machine with an ASUS A8V-MX
motherboard, BIOS 0503 12/06/2005 with AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor
3200+ (single core) with kernel compiled in 32 bit mode (config attached
was used for both the problem kernel and kernel with the patch reverted,
dmesg attached was for the kernel with the patch reverted).

A git bisect traced the problem back to:

From the boot-up I get the message as shown in the images at:
http://www.users.on.net/~arthur.marsh/20151107601.jpg and
http://www.users.on.net/~arthur.marsh/20151107602.jpg

The boot-up suggests trying rebooting with pci=alloc but that didn't help.

The errors shown include
"BAR 0: trying firmware assignment [io size 0x0020]"
"BAR 0: [io size 0x0020] conflicts with PCI Bus #00 [io 0x0000-0xffff]
"BAR 0: failed to assign [io size 0x0020]

After reverting the patch and installing the resulting kernel I was able
to boot normally.

I'd be happy to provide any further information and run further tests to
help identify and resolve the proble.
Hi Arthur,
Sorry for the regression. Could you please also help to
provide the ACPI tables from the affected system? You may get
ACPI tables by installing acpidump and then 'acpidump > acpitables.bin'.
Thanks,
Gerry

Done!

Arthur.
