this isn't really an error.  Its more of a warning, the kernel will
try and allocate these later and I'm guessing based on what you are
seeing it succeeded.

Benh, can we possibly change these messages in pci_32.c?

Heh, well, I've been working on 44x PCI lately and got annoyed by the
exact same messages, though I'm still pondering what would be a better
replacement.

Well, for one the generic pci code will complain if its not able to  
allocate the resource which is the true failure.

I'm thinking maybe we just make these pr_debug() instead of standard  
printk?
