Yes, I agree it's broken. Looks like something that
happens when a device is designed in parallel with the spec.
What bothers me is this patch seems to make devices that do behave
correctly out of spec (registers will be writeable by default) -
correct?
How about we check for overflow and only do the hacks
if it happens?
Also, the code to initialize slot and root control registers is still
there: it would seem that running it will corrupt memmory beyond the
config array?
