Hi all,
	I guess I found the root cause. It's a bug in matching
device scope, variable 'level' should be decreased when walking up PCI
topology.
	Could you please help to test following patch?
Thanks!
Gerry

                        info->path[level].function = PCI_FUNC(tmp->devfn);
                        if (pci_is_root_bus(tmp->bus))

Worked like a charm -- I no longer see all those DMAR messages and the
hpsa hard lockup is gone, thanks. Feel free to add my:
