Haha, I missed that Sami's email, which you just replied to, is dated "1
May 2019" -- that's the reason I couldn't find the original posting in
my edk2-devel folder. That message has already been moved into one of my
archive folders :)

But, now I do see it, and I also see that your first question in
response was spot-on:

Your question there had a small typo -- I think you meant, "It might be
that the PCI hierarchy is enumerated *after* EndOfDxe on Juno, and
*before* on the other platforms."

And yes, that would explain the difference between Juno and {SynQuacer,
Overdrive} very well -- i.e. why Juno was broken and the other platforms
were OK. (Assuming in all cases, the 3rd party dispatch occurred after
EndOfDxe, where it is supposed to.)

Thanks
