So simply reverting this:

commit ac93a3946b676025fa55356180e8321639744b31
Author: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...ux-foundation.org>
Date:   Mon Nov 5 15:52:08 2007 -0800

    sky2: enable PCI config writes
    
    On some boards, PCI configuration space access is turned off by default.
    The 2.6.24 driver doesn't turn it on, and should have.

fixes this regression?

If so, we should revert that change.
