Right.  The point of this quirk (quirk_system_pci_resources()) is to
prevent the PNP system driver from claiming resources that are actually
used by PCI.  So I don't think there's any reason to run it before we
bind the driver to the device.  PNP doesn't currently have any early/
late concept for quirks, but we probably should add one.

Feels like a post-2.6.27 project though.
