The BIOS setup has no options to enable/disable these devices.

The only option I can see that could be relevant is:
=CONFIGURATION=
Device Config. = [Setup by OS | All Devices]

This was set to "Setup by OS".

[me reboots with that option changed]

Hmm. If I change that option to "All devices" the "io resource overlap"
messages disappear!

Attached are two logs with PCI debugging enabled and extra "early dumps"
included in the following places (changes in includes omitted):

The "Setup by OS" log does show the following _after_ the PNP quirks:

The diff between the logs is quite clear and illumination. It also shows
differences in the "early dumps". Hope you can tell more from that.
If you'd like me to do more instrumentation, please let me know.

I guess I'll leave that BIOS option in the "All devices" setting. However,
I doubt I'm the only person who has it in the "Setup by OS" setting.

Cheers,
