Ok, doesn't look like you've pulled yet, so I queued up a couple more crash
fixes (shortlog & diffstat include previous stuff as well).

Alex Chiang (1):
PCI: acpiphp: cleanup notify handler on all root bridges

Ben Hutchings (1):
PCI: Restrict VPD read permission to root

Benjamin Li (1):
PCI: Limit VPD read/write lengths for Broadcom 5706, 5708, 5709 rev.
