Here's a quick fix for the problem. The correct fix is to configure
your PCIC controller quickly. The reason this hasn't been done is
no-one with the ability to do it has the time to do it.
On line 816 of /sys/pcic.c:
if (validslots && pcic_irq <= 0)
Change this to:
if (validslots)
And it will work. However, you're wasting an IRQ for the PCIC
controller that is doing nothing for you.
