Yes, thanks. I'll try to make it clear the bug it fixes.=20

secretbug? Alan found resume hang on his 845G machine during his pm test,
and root cause that to extra pci config restore in agp/intel resume functio=
n,
which was having a fix to workaround resume order problem for host bridge a=
nd
gfx device for pci restore. But now this is handled by early pci resume alr=
eady,
but the extra restore in resume caused machine hang. So remove them fixed
Alan's hang issue.

Sorry, I might misread on something, "early version merged" seems nonsense.
I'll try to send them again.
