Subject: Re: [PATCH] PCI: Limit VPD length for Broadcom 5708S

Hi Eric,

I think this is the commit that broke the Broadcom NIC VPD quirk fix.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=201de56eb22f1ff3f36804bc70cbff220b50f067

This is because the quirk relied on pci_vpd_pci22_init() being called
before pci_fixup_device() is called.

Now pci_fixup_device() is being called before pci_vpd_pci22_init().
Because of this reordering, dev->vpd is NULL rendering the quirk
ineffective.

I will work on a solution and keep you posted.

Thanks again.

-Ben
