Since the host bridge doesn't support hotplug in any way, how about setting a flag once enumeration is complete, to prevent all future config accesses? > I don't have a good suggestion for addressing it, but if you can't > make this work reliably, you need at least a dev_err() in the probe > function and probably a taint of the kernel (see add_taint()). There is a chance that the issue will get fixed in rev2 of the bridge. But obviously, that won't help for rev1 already in the wild. Regards.
