reboot/shutdown hang in 3.8-rc3 due to 71e3d1578c954cf29f1f4db1c8930d3574025eb0 went away in this rc. But I am still seeing
[ 22.890240] DMAR:[fault reason 06] PTE Read access is not set [ 22.890268] dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 3 [ 22.890272] dmar: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [01:00.0] fault addr 80004000
on ATI radeon VGA. Running bisect and will update.
