Yes, this makes my setup work again.

I'm still nervous that it will cause problem on some _other_ machines
(because of not knowing that some bridge is transparent and then trying to
re-allocate things unnecessarily and causing chaos), but at least it seems
to be ok on this machine.

So I do have this nagging feeling that we'll still end up having to do
this whole "reassign PCI buses" thing as a kernel command line option and
default to not doing it, but let's give it a chance.
