Description of problem:

Between kernels 2.4.18-19.8.x and 2.4.20-2.21 as well as 2.4.20-2.25 from
rawhide, new PCI messages have been reported at bootup during PCI initialization:

PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 0 of device 01:00.0

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Seen on kernel 2.4.20-2.25, 2.4.20-2.21.

How reproducible:

I have not been able to find a BIOS setting that will not produce this message.

The grub.conf that the beta installed had the pci=nobios option set, I have also
tried booting without that option set, and still get this error.

Again, this error did not show up in 2.4.18-19.8.x.
