Regression: Kernel unbootable since commit 4d6b4e6 - found by bisection
From: Larry Finger

Since early in the 4.3-rcx series, my Dell Latitude D600 with a 32-bit kernel
fails to boot. Unfortunately, I did not discover this until late in the 4.4-rcX
cycle. The symptom is that the kernel echos the "Loading initial ramdisk ..."
message and then hangs.
The problem was bisected to commit 4d6b4es" x86/PCI/ACPI: Use common interface
to support PCI host bridge" from Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. The
bisection was tested by reverting the commit in question. I have not yet tried
to analyze the patch to see where it might be going wrong.
Please suggest any trial prints to debug this issue.
Thanks,
Larry
