Andy you have right. The patch is no general solution and very hardwarespecific.

But it should not affect other machines with the same hardware because patch check also the subvendor and subdevice id's that only found at Twinhead h12y notebooks. And if there is a twinhead H12Y with fixed bios it only move some mmio resources what should not give a problem because
 there are enough space...

I have added this subvendor check because the first patch moved all Realtec 8139 (I have only seen this with lspci at my test but the card has still worked)

Im not able to find a better solution. I had needed around a year to find the reason why this hardware crashing but im not able to fix this more generic.
