Jesse, is there a way to find out the safe maximum value for readrq? I'm a bit reluctant to drop it as pcie variants of these chips are bottlenecked on the host bus pretty badly. > > Anyway, this mail is regarding another issue. > > > > I am still having problem when I use above driver (with above patch), > > in following > > situation. > > > > My SOC is having cortex-a9 dual core.

All init happens in the same thread. There's no race condition involved here. I'm not too familiar with arm. Can you please track down what is causing the crash? ie. is it memory access to kernel data structure or io region?
