This is a known problem, but I have no clue why it happens.  Since it
is at 0:7:0, there's no bridges between it and the CPU.

I'm guessing that there's some minor, tiny standard violation in our
pci config cycle generation.  Either that, or there's some power
domain that isn't properly being turned on when you boot an acpi based
OS.  It is hard to say w/o access to the hardware.
