interesting.
Due to the experimental nature of mm-sources, and since we do not maintain the patchset can you please contact Andrew Morton, the maintainer of mm-sources so he can rectify this issue? Thanks!
Andre Morton don't consider this to be a mm-sources problem. But he asked me to contact the authors of the said drivers to have them fix it.... Meaning we should fix our drivers ...!?
we'll rectify the problem when the pci change hits mainline see bug 62671
