Ok, I'll commit it.

This leaves the issue of the serial ports on ia64 open. So it may be that 
we'll have to instead revert the use of pci_claim_resource() on x86, but 
it sounded like we'd have people looking at that. I'd rather make forward 
progress on something that looks this trivial than revert it just to get 
us back to the pre-regression thing.
