I posted a third approach last night. For those of you following this
thread there are now three streams:
This stream,
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/16/168 (which is also on the linux-pci list),
and https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/21/12 (which is also on the linux-pci list).

Perhaps the third time will be a charm
