+ * Hard Fail vs. Soft Fail on PCI "Master Abort".

+ * "Master Abort" means the MMIO transaction timed out - usually due to
+ * the device not responding to an MMIO read. We would like HF to be
+ * enabled to find driver problems, though it means the system will
+ * crash with a HPMC.
+ *
+ * In SoftFail mode "~0L" is returned as a result of a timeout on the
+ * pci bus. This is like how PCI busses on x86 and most other
+ * architectures behave. In order to increase compatibility with
+ * existing (x86) PCI hardware and existing Linux drivers we enable
+ * Soft Faul mode on PA-RISC now too.
