Greg,
The root cause is the use of u32 to describe a PCI resource "start".
phys_addr needs to be "unsigned long". More details in Log entry below.
Patch applies to 2.6.16-rc3 and should apply to 2.6.15 as well.

I tested this with 2.6.15 on the same HW Mike Miller was having problems.


My clue from the PCI 3.0 spec:
| 6.8.2. MSI-X Capability and Table Structures
| ...
| Each structure is mapped by a Base Address register (BAR) belonging
| to the function,located beginning at 10h in Configuration Space.
| A BAR Indicator register (BIR) indicates which BAR, and a
| QWORD-aligned Offset indicates where the structure begins
| relative to the base address associated with the BAR. The BAR is
| permitted to be either 32-bit or 64-bit, but must map Memory Space.
| A function is permitted to map both structures with the same BAR,
| or to map each structure with a different BAR.


"or 64-bit".  This is also relevant to boxen which do not
equivalently map 32-bit PCI MMIO and Host physical address space.

thanks,

Log Entry:

	Use "unsigned long" when dealing with PCI resources.
	The BAR Indicator Register (BIR) can be a 64-bit value
	or the resource could be a 64-bit host physical address.

	Enables ib_mthca and cciss drivers to use MSI-X on ia64 HW.
	Problem showed up now because of new system firmware on one platform.
	Symptom will either be memory corruption or MCA.

	Second part of this patch deals with "useless" code.
	We walk through the steps to find the phys_addr and then
	don't use the result. I suspect the intent was to zero
	out the respective MSI-X entry but I'm not sure at the moment.
	Delete the code inside the #if 0/#endif if it's really
	not needed.
