Setting all 3 on an Atom D510MO works fine.  On a Lenovo W520 though
hw.pci.clear_bars=1 causes a lockup during boot.  The last few lines
with a normal boot are:

pcib0: <ACPI Host-PCI bridge> port 0xcf8-0xcff on acpi0
pcib0: decoding 5 range 0-0xfe
pci0: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib0
	secbus=1, subbus=1
pci0:0:1:0: allocated initial secbus range

While a verbose boot produces:

pcib0: allocated type 3 (0xc0000400-0xc00007ff) for rid 10 of pci:0:0:26:0
pcib0: matched entry for 0x26.INTA
pcib0: slot 26 INTA hardwired to IRQ 26

And it ends there.  Setting the other 2 are fine though.
