It looks like these add some new, unconditional debug output?  I guess I 
shouldn't worry about printks so much at this point, given how much 
obsolete/uninteresting info gets dumped these days, but it would be nice if 
this were only dumped if some debug option were set.  Given the variety of 
PCI stuff we might like to dump at various times, maybe it's time we added a 
few new pci=debug=foo options?  Yinghai?

Thanks,
Jesse
