SIS 85C496 on Asus sp3 appears to have an equivalent bug (same CSR0
setting fixes kernel deadlocks that occur when using the
non-burst-challenged 0x01A08000 setting), so if you're going to catch it
with a special case in the pci code, you need to catch that as well as the
Saturn II chipset.

Which chipset. I can then add it to the PCI quirks and we can do it nicely
in 2.4 so that driv

Shouldn't the setting of the CSR0 value for x86 switch between normal
(0x01A08000) and cautious (0x01A04800) based on some notion of
what generation of pci bus is installed rather than what cpu the kernel
is compiled for?
That's one thing that bothered me about the method that the .90 driver
used
