Re: Tegra PCIe system hangs

Ok, turn out this seems to be an issue with legacy PCI interrupts.
Nouveau wasn't really using MSI interrupts, switching them on seems to
fix the stability issue.

Still I would be interested in the root cause and would like to see this
documented somewhere.

Thanks,
Lucas
