The problem is >> modprobe:2584 conflicting cache attribute 50000000-50001000 >> uncached<->default Some address range here is being mapped with conflicting types. Somewhere the range was mapped with default (write-back). Later pci_iomap() is mapping that region as uncacheable which is basically aliasing. PAT code detects the aliasing and fails the second uncacheable request which leads in the failure. We are trying to find who exactly is mapping this with default at the beginning. Balbir: Full dmesg with debug boot parameter may help.
