This is a SMP-related problem. Unfortunately, I can't test it on my
Single-P90 based system (Unless you have a spare board + 2 processors for
me... ;) ).
I'll have a look, but I can't promise anything.

About the pci.h file, what you did was correct - my file was for 2.1.7x
kernels, and there were some changes in 2.1.8x. It'll be fixed soon.
