Well thanks to yourself, and Alex Deucher. He came up with the patch within half an hour when I gave him the results of your debugging. Yes, it is not re-post'ing at all now. It should never do after VT switching, only once after boot or resume. The old test to see if it was already post'ed was broken for many M6 cards, since the test was to check if mem_size was zero, and these cards have some hardware bug where the mem_size register is 0 instead of 8, and even if 8 was written back initially, it would "forget" it again. Therefore an unnecessary post was done, and multiple post'ing is often troublesome.
