This patch addresses the issue fully described here:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-02/msg01804.html

Linux kernels prior to 2.6.36 do not disable the PCI device during
enumeration process. Since lower and higher parts of a 64bit BAR
are programmed separately this leads to qemu receiving a request to occupy
a completely wrong address region for a short period of time.
We have found that the boot process screws up completely if kvm-apic range
is overlapped even for a short period of time (it is fine for other
regions though).

This patch raises the priority of the kvm-apic memory region, so it is
never pushed out by PCI devices. The patch is quite safe as it does not
touch memory manager.

as far as the sysbus changes go. I can't comment on whether the
change to the PC emulation is correct or not but it looks
vaguely plausible.

So the issue it that we hide the MSI target region from the device
models for a "short periods of time"? How short is this? It would be
good to fully understand what goes "completely wrong" to avoid that we
miss to fix something else (IO-APIC, HPET) or even paper over a problem
of the memory subsystem.

                                                  ^^^^^^
Minor, but "0x" makes this look like an address.

I agree we need to look closer at the modeling, but
this looks like the right thing to do for 1.4 stable branch.
So let's take it.
