You need to figure out what the problem is, not just avoid it. It's
very unlikely that the problem is something unique to ia64. In fact,
I think it's very doubtful that the problem is even something unique
to the 5520 root ports. My guess is there's something special about
the system you're testing.
Evidently you have traffic going to a device behind the root port at
the same time as we're trying to read the root port's BARs. Linux
should not generate traffic like that while we're enumerating the root
port. Does the problem happen on a root port with an iLO behind it?
Can you collect "lspci -vvv" output and identify the root port where
the problem occurs?
