I do hope as part of this we can reconsider why CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE 
isn't part of the defconfig in the first place.

defconfig doesn't work on any hardware of mine by default and it's too 
much work to figure out what to add to it.  So I always start at distro 
configs and peel back for my own use.

But, if we could actually make defconfig *usable* for general purpose 
kernel users maybe more people would use it.

I suppose we /could/ have CONFIG_AMD_PMC depend on 
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE but it feels like using super glue on a wound 
until we know why this happens.

If I was to guess what's happening here is the firmware* has never been 
tested with the PcieHotplug _OSC negotiation failing and there is an 
implicit assumption on that working.  All Windows testing has that in 
place, and our internal Linux testing has always been on kernels with it 
too (see defconfig comment above).

* I don't know if this is an ASUS firmware or AMD (AGESA) firmware issue.
