No, that's not the solution. The solution is to get the kernel to return
the *correct* iobase for the sepecific devfn, right now it returns one for
any and all pci devices. Since these strange UniN boards have multiple
bases, it should take into consideration the devfn (which it currently
ignores totally).
Michel, find out your 2 (or 3?) iobases and try each one (hardcode it in
X, set it for ioBase_phys) and see which one works. When you find the
right one, add that to the kernel syscall, or find a generic way to find
the mask which sets those on that bus apart from others.
