Yes, I definitely think we should test on the hardware before we
land yet another change to this PCI code that hasn't really been
thoroughly tested on anything. I have the board/backplane on my
desk but it'll be later in the week before I can do the testing
(currently still messing with uboot config to get it to actually
boot a kernel).
