As you note above, interrupt handling is implemented in dwc core so if there are any issue here at all, which I doubt, then all of the dwc drivers that currently can be built as modules would all be broken and this would need to be fixed in core. I've been using the modular pcie-qcom patch for months now, unloading and reloading the driver repeatedly to test power sequencing, without noticing any problems whatsoever. Johan
