Tested again in the RPi CM4 based setup, but didn't help, it's failing
in the same way, still says PASS THROUGH state: SYS ERROR:

I've tested the same patches in my desktop PC (based on 5.13.1, and
even without this last addition) and the boot process is much more
stable and I cannot see the "firmware crashed" errors reported. My
assumption right now is that the pci_generic.c entries we're adding
are correct, but there's some limitation in this system that is making
the EM9191 boot fail, but I still don't know which limitation it is.
The memory addresses in the "BAR 0: assigned" log are definitely
different in the RPi CM4, and also the shared MSI limitation. I recall
Thomas saying that he also tested on a desktop PC forcing the shared
MSI limitation and he had the same kind of firmware errors reported;
I'll also try to test that.
Here are the logs in my desktop pc for reference:
