I don't see anything too objectionable in this pull. You didn't say
anything about regression testing on other architectures though, which I
would like to see on account of the changes to common PM and PCI code.
Could you do some smoke testing with other architectures to confirm
there aren't any obvious regressions?

Thanks,
Seth
