Well, that's not surprising.
If you set uselocks=1, ttpci_budget_debiread/write must not sleep,
i.e. you have to set nobusyloop=0. Does it work now?

Nevertheless I don't like busy looping with interrupts disabled.
AFAICS the budget_debi routines are never called from interrupt context,
so it should be sufficient to use spin_[un]lock_bh() instead of
spin_[un]lock_irq_save(). Could you please try this?
