Hello, Sorry for the interruption, and top posting, but there are two patches from Jonathan Nieder:
1) x86-pci-use-host-bridge-_crs-info-on-msi-ms-7253.patch 2) x86-pci-do-not-tie-msi-ms-7253-use_crs-quirk-to-bios-version.patch related to this regression. The second one removes the dependency on the BIOS version. Maybe I'm missing something and the second one will be queued too for backporting? Thanks!
