Thanks for testing this! > [2] -> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15185894/ It looks like you are hitting the BUG_ON() in ioremap_pte_range() that checks if a virtual address already has a page table entry, which in turn is probably a result of dw_pcie_host_init() calling pci_remap_iospace() again for the same memory area it has called the last time, and no cleanup done inbetween. Could you try adding a pci_unmap_iospace() and calling that in the device remove function? Let me know if you need help implementing it.
