First things first, thank you for such a quick response. Unfortunately
there wasn't much relevant in the kernel logs. The only thing that
showed up was the information for me to use pci=route irq if some of my
devices stopped working. Needless to say that it didn't work, contrary
to the solution you've provided :)

My speedtouch module is built into kernel too, so are the necessary
modules. I'm using Debian SID. Did you mean that solution as a permanent
solution or just a fudge?
I'm asking because after appending pci=noacpi to the kernel boot params,
restoration of serial ports parameters stalls for quite a while. Didn't
yet figure it out why though.
