those two patch just got into linus 2.6.25-rc1.

I assume that you will drop
gregkh-pci-pci-make-pci-extended-config-space-a-driver-opt-in.patch in
-mm.

please check some updated patches in -mm that could be affected. hope
it could save you some time

x86-validate-against-acpi-motherboard-resources.patch
x86-clear-pci_mmcfg_virt-when-mmcfg-get-rejected.patch
x86-mmconf-enable-mcfg-early.patch
x86_64-check-msr-to-get-mmconfig-for-amd-family-10h-opteron-v3.patch
