Long shot, but did you try removing power completely between the reboots?
I wonder if the PCI config space write patch could be (a) bogus for your
device, and (b) preserved across warm reboot by your PCI hardware.

So, you could just try removing the battery and PSU, hitting the power
button a few times with them unplugged to discharge caps, and then
boot into the old kernel again.

Thanks,

- Chris.
