On second thought, while 0x0 is strange, it should work.
It's a valid port address and no other devices will collide with it.
While it's odd that the resource allocation changed, it looks
like it is working correctly.

My guess is some code that checks "!resource->start"
and concluding the device doesn't have a resource assigned.
Just need to find the code....I'm hoping the full console log
will contain that clue.
