I see two problems in the initial report from FichdlMaa:

1) Linux ignores ACPI _CRS information and consequently assigns addresses to 
the 80:01.0 device that may not work.
2) The page fault: "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 
ffffc90000378000"

Booting with "pci=use_crs" should work around the first problem.  This
is only a workaround, not a real fix  because we don't expect users to
have to use that option.

If "pci=use_crs" makes a difference, and if it still fixes a problem in
the current upstream kernel (v4.0-rcX), please open a bug report at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org (in drivers/pci category), attaching a
complete dmesg log, and we can add a quirk to turn on that option
automatically.

I don't have a theory about the page fault problem.

Details about the _CRS problem:

    bus: 00 index 2 [mem 0x80000000-0xfcffffffff]

The range above is from amd_bus.c.  Note that it covers the mem windows
for both PCI0 and PCI1 below.

    PCI: Ignoring host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary, use 
"pci=use_crs" and report a bug
    ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (domain 0000 [bus 00-7f])
    pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem 0x80000000-0xbfefffff] 
(ignored)
    pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] 
(ignored)
    pci_root PNP0A08:00: host bridge window [mem 0xf0000000-0xfebfffff] 
(ignored)
    ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI1] (domain 0000 [bus 80-ff])
    pci_root PNP0A08:01: host bridge window [mem 0x000a0000-0x000bffff] 
(ignored)
    pci_root PNP0A08:01: host bridge window [mem 0xbff00000-0xbfffffff] 
(ignored)
    pci 0000:80:01.0: [1106:3288] type 0 class 0x000403
    pci 0000:80:01.0: reg 10: [mem 0xbfffc000-0xbfffffff 64bit]

The initial configuration from BIOS (above) looks correct.  The 80:01.0
BAR 0 is inside the PCI1 host bridge window reported by ACPI _CRS.

    pci 0000:80:01.0: address space collision: [mem 0xbfffc000-0xbfffffff 
64bit] conflicts with PCI Bus #00 [mem 0x80000000-0xfcffffffff]
    pci 0000:80:01.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0xfd00000000-0xfd00003fff 64bit]

But we're ignoring _CRS and using the information from amd_bus.c, so we
think there's a conflict with the PCI0 window.  We reassign 80:01.0 to
an address that is under PCI0, not PCI1.  If the ACPI _CRS description
is correct, this means MMIO accesses intended for 80:01.0 will never
reach the device.
