ISCI bus_alloc_resource failed

There are 2 devices in the same group so I passed both of them:
http://duttonbrosllc.com/misc/vmware_esxi_passthrough_config.png

At the time I wasn't sure if this was necessary but I just tried the  
Centos 7 VM and it worked without the SMBus device being passed  
through. I then tried the FreeBSD VM without SMBus and saw the same  
allocation error as before. Looks like the SMBus device is a red  
herring?

Thanks,
Brad
