The last identifiable message I was

<7>PCI: Calling quirk...

which is from drivers/pci/quirks.c

...CI: Found 0000:00:07.2 [1106/303...

and this is from pci_setup_device() in drivers/pci/probe.c  So I'd look
to see if pci_setup_device() ever returned, and then I'd look to see
what happened next.
Ah, I thought probing is done in the architecture's PCI code. I'll take
a look at pci_setup_device() function.
It's one of the quirks I suppose. Those are often full of x86 only
bogoziness that hurts everybody else if you happen to hit them.

The "late" quirks are called at pci_enable_device() time.
