Comment:

 Okay, so there is an elephant in the closet.

 The Geode chipset doesn't really have PCI config registers.  They are
 emulated in firmware via a System Management Interrupt (which is not
 always used) and in Linux by spoofing PCI configuration cycles.

 Fixing that Linux emulation is too risky, so we will just leave the device
 turned on.  Fixed by svn 2585
