A bit more info:

I think I only get this error when suspending for the second time
after boot.  No clue why.

I instrumented the code a bit.  At the time of that error, res->flags
== 0x2.  It's probably not a coincidence that:

#define IORESOURCE_ROM_SHADOW        (1<<1)    /* ROM is copy at C000:0 */

Should pci_fixup_video check that the resource exists in the first
place before setting flags on it?
