      PCI: expose SMBus on Asus notebook A6L · 4096ed0f
      Mats Erik Andersson authored
      Addition of one unknown subsystem identifier to the quirks handler for
      chipset i82855GM_HB on notebook Asus A6L. This exposes the otherwise
      hidden SMBus controller within the south bridge ICH4-M.

      PCI: Add support for turning PCIe ECRC on or off · 43c16408
      Andrew Patterson authored
      Adds support for PCI Express transaction layer end-to-end CRC checking
      (ECRC).  This patch will enable/disable ECRC checking by setting/clearing
      the ECRC Check Enable and/or ECRC Generation Enable bits for devices that
      support ECRC.
      
      The ECRC setting is controlled by the "pci=ecrc=<policy>" command-line
      option. If this option is not set or is set to 'bios", the enable and
      generation bits are left in whatever state that firmware/BIOS set them to.
      The "off" setting turns them off, and the "on" option turns them on (if the
      device supports it).
      
      Turning ECRC on or off can be a data integrity versus performance
      tradeoff.  In theory, turning it on will catch more data errors, turning
      it off means possibly better performance since CRC does not need to be
      calculated by the PCIe hardware and packet sizes are reduced.
