I have been reading over the mailing list and reading over

I am searching for a way to disable and re-enable HT links
for various reasons _without_ performing a reset (for example changing link
speed/width or enabling/disabling devices at runtime). It seems that LinuxBIOS
has chosen to not use LDTSTOP and just use resets instead. Is this a workaround
due to the difficulty of implementing LDTSTOP?
I am using a Tyan K8SRE (S2891) motherboard. The board has
an Nvidia nForce 4 Pro (CK804).
