The feedback on this PR is confusing. It sounds like the register-level
PCI configuration space probe fails, but this is basically the same code
that's in 3.x.
At any rate, I am a little wary of bringing the PCI BIOS config space
access functions back to 4.x so late. I should have looked at this
earlier, I'm sorry.
On the other hand, there *is* an easy workaround to turn them off, so in
the worst case we would have an escape route.
Jordan, what's your feeling on this? I don't have a 450GX board to test
with. 8(
