* Reintroduce pushing 0 into the TRDY_TIMEOUT and RETRY_TIMEOUT
  registers. Make this configurable with module parameter
  init_pcitm.

* We now have the ludicrous situation that some hardware setups
  require this (not even pushing 0xFF helps), whilst others
  don't care either way (the majority), and yet others bork
  if anything is pushed into these regs.
  If anybody can explain this (including Conexant :-) ), my ears
  are open.

Jeff, this patch together with the mgtframeptr patch from 07/15 are
pretty urgent.
