One thing we should keep in mind for the shadow ram thing: 
Just about every chipset I have seen has shadow ram registers that can 
correctly be set with the following info:

VendorID, DeviceID, Function, register, AndMask, OrMask.

This rapidly leads to a simple table something like this:

struct shadowram{ 
        int physaddress;
        u16 VendorID, DeviceID, Function;
        u8 register;
        u8 AndMask, OrMask}; 

struct shadowram s[] = {
        {0xf0000, 0xabcd, 0x1234, 0x15, 0x40, 0xf8, 0x1},
        { etc.}
        {0,}
};

I haven't stumbled across a chipset yet for which this would not work.
