I am experiencing boot problem with kernel 2.6.33-rc1. Bisection points to
commit 99935a7a59eaca0292c1a5880e10bae03f4a5e3d

x86/PCI: read root resources from IOH on Intel
For intel systems with multi IOH, we should read peer root resources
directly from PCI config space, and don't trust _CRS.

V2.6.32 is OK
V2.6.33 is bad. A brief summary of the problem is that very quickly kernel (
less than 1.5 seconds) try to mount the root device without doing any probing
on disk leading to a kernel panic ( could not mount root devices). Alsa
devices and usb devices is also not detected / not probed. Maybe other devices
is also not detected but that just from the message seen on the monitor before
the panic so it's not very accurate (no log as it doesn't boot and only one
computer so no serial console). Sounds like the kernel didn't see any devices
(disk, usb, sounds).
I have a intel system so the commit log seems possibly relevant for the my
computer (Not sure of what is IOH, i have take it for I/O Hub in the lspci out
output and i have 3 of these according to lspci).
Have try to revert the commit on a 2.6.33_rc1 base but this lead to some
compilation problem (symbol not defined and so on). So I'm not completely sure
of my bisection (also note that it's the first time i use git so an error is
very possible).
Attached a dmesg log with kernel 2.6.32-rc8 and lspci -vvv output.
If you need further information/testing, i will my best to provide these.
Regards
Vincent ETIENNE
