Subject: Re: [patch 2/2] PNP: don't check disabled PCI BARs for conflicts in quirk_system_pci_resources()

Where are we on this regression?  We got side-tracked with all
the initcall ordering stuff, but I don't think that leads to
something appropriate for this late stage of 2.6.27.

I think the safest (and already tested) path is the
"res->start == 0 means disabled" check in the PNP quirk.
