Yep, thanks.

So your error doesn't happen straight after the box has booted but
later, ~70 seconds within the boot. I'm guessing that's reproducible?
Are you doing something specific right after the machine is booted? It
doesn't look so to me because you're in cpu_idle when the timer IRQ
happens.

It looks like this is the polling interval that comes from the GHES
gunk.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, are you doing something special to
cause the PCIe error or it just happens while the machine is idle?

What about a BIOS update?

Hmm, so it could be some hidden device or maybe the error info is
corrupted. Btw, it also says:

[   72.948961] PCI AER Cannot get PCI device 0000:00:00.3

which is also a device you *don't* find in lspci.

This is fun - detecting PCIe devices by the errors they generate.
Hahahaha.

To tell you the truth, nothing will surprise me anymore. :-)

You gotta love hw vendors' excuses. I can translate this message into
what it actually means :)

Yeah, they got reverted for SP2 but are back in SP3:

http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source/commit/?h=SLE11-SP3&id=cd825d98ec79f777c14531f402d13a66598f3179

I don't understand: are you saying this patch breaks detection of your
keyboard and touchpad and if you revert it, it works again? But 3.9 works?
