Hi,
On a system with PCI-to-PCI bridges, following errors are observed:
PCI: Failed to allocate mem resource #8:[EMAIL PROTECTED] for 0000:02:00.0
PCI: Failed to allocate mem resource #6:[EMAIL PROTECTED] for 0000:03:01.0
'#6' is for expansion ROM and '#8' for the bridge where the device
with the expansion ROM is connected.
But I think the failure is benign because the allocation is
not necessary for these resources.
The allocation failure message is informative when the failure
is really a problem and needs a diagnosis.
However, if the resource is expansion ROMs, the message is just
confusing.
This patch omits the error message if the resource is an expansion
ROM or a bridge.
Thanks,
