Subject: [PATCH] quirks: Flag up and handle the AMD 8151 Errata #24
AMD states the following
"Some PCI cards generate peer-to-peer posted-write traffic targetting
the AGP bridge (from the PCI bus, through the graphics tunnel to the AGP
bus). The combination of such cards and some AGP cards can generate
traffic patters that result in a system deadlock."
As AMD don't say *which* video cards we need to flag this up to the
graphics capture devices that may be affected by this errata so that
they fall back to slower/safer methods.
This only affects AGP although the rarity of PCI video cards on an AMD64
box means that the quick "treat like PCIPCI_FAIL" approach will be fine
for a starter in the capture card drivers.
