Hi Vojtech,

Do I correctly assume that these fixups for Intel chipsets are from you?

Yes.

Care to explain why 'trash' fixup is needed in 2.6 but not in 2.4?

Because 2.4 was never used on the affected machines, where this fixup
was needed - those machines sere putting nonsense into the BARs. I don't
recall exactly what model they were, though I remember they were one of
the first machines with ICH MMIO support.
