Well, this most likely is a result of the recent PCI PM core changes, but
it's hard to say which of them exactly is responsible in this particular case.

Please open a bug at bugzilla.kernel.org with a CC to me and put your system
information in there (the output of 'lspci -vv', /proc/iomem, /proc/interrupts,
boot log).

Also please try to reproduce the problem in the minimal configuration
(init=/bin/bash, /proc and /sys mounted manually).

Thanks,
