Greetings,
I've been doing that for some time now. I haven't had a great problem, though the sample size is smaller than MCR. How is the OS triggering a power off followed by a cold start going to screw up PCIH2?
G'day, sjames

If you're using the linuxbios_reset (kernel linuxbios patch), you can have reset write 0x0e to 0xcf9. That will do a 3 second poweroff instead of a simple reset. That should avoid the issue at least.
A) lm_sensors would still not be reliable. B) It would quite possibly undo the fix for the PCIH2 that causes the boards to lock up while scanning the PCI bus. And without a cluster like MCR to test on I don't feel comfortable doing that.
