Comment(by Zajec):

 stuge: thank you for explaining, I understand your patch, just my hardware
 knowledge is too poor.

 I was sure that '''only''' writing to reserved bits can cause PCI-E
 problem/corruption. I was sure that writing to other bits (even these
 controlling not existing channel) can't cause problem. That's the part
 that sounds weird for me - person, who don't really understand low level
 hardware dependencies.

 If you belive PCI-E corruption is caused because we try to controll not
 existing channel (and that controlling existing second channel should
 work), that's great. Thanks for clarifing.
