Yep. It looks a bug.

...However, removal of the bug causes issue that the driver fails to start a
pair of capture/playback PCM substream when application requests them mostly
the same time, like jackd process.

I think I did apply the bug as a makeshift workaround, then forgot itself
when developing the driver... I'd like to have a bit time for further
investigation, then post my fix in this development period.

Probably you need a small delay in the loop?
Why else do you #include <linux/delay.h>? ;-)

I know PDI1394L40 (link layer) has quirks inconvenient to us. Furthermore, the behaviour of on-board FPGAs with unique firmwares are in black boxes to me.

I prefer deliberate approach for this kind of work, reverse engineering.
