There are 3 pci slots on m758/m787.  If I want to use all 3 slots, I need
to disable audio/modem.  However, some applications might not want to disable
audio.  Even storing IRQ assignment is also very useful for debugging 
purpose.  Storing boot option is useful, too. I'm just thinking flexablity 
here.
