3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jean Delvare <khali@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 41002f8dd5938d5ad1d008ce5bfdbfe47fa7b4e8 upstream.

We were accidentally losing one bit in the configuration register on
device initialization. It was reported to freeze one specific system
right away. Properly preserve all bits we don't explicitly want to
change in order to prevent that.
