The dmesg of the working kernel:

The output of lspci -vvxxxx:

The output of lspci -tvnn:

I don't have a serial console hooked up to the machine, and I'm not able 
to scroll up/down after the panic, so I only have the following picture 
from the crash.  I modified the code that spews out registers on a panic 
so that the context of the panic could be seen.  The stack trace didn't 
show anything useful, only repeats of an address similar to IP (for 
which no symbols exist).
