I haven't really had a chance to review it.  Initial thoughts were -
on patch 1, I'm not sure how that will impact stack usage which is
quite tight when running in 16bit mode; patch 5 - seems incomplete if
it doesn't handle bridges properly.  I didn't fully understand patch
5, but that's likely just due to lack of time to look at it.

BTW, what's the use case for 64bit PCI today?
