I rebuild the vfio patch on base of your vfio-3.4 branch and applied it
with the additional quirks patch to the opensuse kernel 3.4.1 (desktop
flavor). Now it's working fine with opensuse, too (PCIe passthrough, PCI
passthrouh and fglrx with a board with AMD chipset 990X)! There have
been slight differences in the two different ways of creating the
complete patch for 3.4 which raised the problem.

Downside is (as you already mentioned), that a lot of devices have to be
unbind to get it working. Would be great, if this could be optimized :-).

Your vfio-3.4 branch helped me a lot!

BTW:
If anybody is interested, I could attach a complete vfio patch for 3.4.

Thanks for your great support and patience,
Andreas
