amdgpu with 8+ cards for GPU mining?

Hi Joseph,

and here is the root cause of the problem:

The BIOS is not able to assign resources to one of the VGA adapters when 
there are more than eight installed.

You could try with pci=realloc, but I doubt that there is much we can do 
in the operating system when the BIOS messed things up like that.

What we should do is to prevent amdgpu from crashing so badly, e.g. 
allow to cleanly continue with the working hardware even when one of the 
devices doesn't work.

You can work around that using netconsole, see 
Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt.

Going to try to fix that by just using the screen shot you send earlier, 
but it would be better if I can get a full log.

Regards,
Christian.
