Nope. Merely that getting the dynamic config for a particular index
caused the failure.

Unfortunately, I don't think we really have the tools available
to debug that.

At some point after entering the pnpbioscall() trampoline, I presume
in 16-bit land.

Great.

I must say, I wonder if we need a bitmask of pnpbios indices to exclude
that could be patched into the kernel or configured in. "Ugh".
