Some HP BIOSes (observed with an HP ProLiant m710p Server Cartridge) have a bug in the implementation of INT 1a,b101: they blithely assume that real-mode code is able to read from anywhere in the 32-bit memory space. This problem affects the call to INT 1a,b101 made from within pcibios_num_bus() (which uses REAL_CODE() and hence executes in genuine real mode) but does not affect the call made from within romprefix.S (since with a PMM BIOS, that call executes in flat real mode anyway). Work around the problem by explicitly calling flatten_real_mode() before invoking INT 1a,b101. This is a rarely-used code path, and so the extra overhead of emulating instructions in some VM configurations (see commit 6d4deee ("[librm] Use genuine real mode to accelerate operation in virtual machines") for more details) is negligible.
