Did you try the "pci=assign-busses" option before you reverted that patch? Is
your system running a 32- or 64-bit system?
This breakage needs to be sent to linux-kernel at vger.kernel.org. As you have seen
from the short log accompanying that patch, it was signed-off-by Andrew Morton
and Linus Torvalds - you cannot get any higher than that.
I have some personal interest in this problem as the patch in question fixed a
problem that kept my machine from booting with any cardbus card in the adapter.
