Huh, this log is actually pointing at something very ugly. Not a race,
but some horrible ID confusion. See below.

I had tried this module parameter, but it didn't change anything on my
end.

I'll have a look whether the TX1 PCIe driver uses this. It's
positively ancient, so I wouldn't bet that it has been touched
significantly in the past 5 years.

This is really odd. It indicates that you have several devices sharing
the same DeviceID, which I seriously doubt it is the case in a
laptop. Do you have any non-transparent bridge here? lspci would help.

Where is the bus number gone?

This is device 0002:01:00.0...

> [    9.326554] Reusing ITT for devID 100

... seen as device 0000:01:00.0. WTF???

I'm starting to suspect that the new code doesn't carry all the
required bits for the DevID, and that we end-up trying to allocated
interrupts from the pool allocated to another device, which can never
be a good thing, and would explain why everything dies a painful
death.

Can you run the same trace with the whole thing reverted? I think
we're on something here.

Thanks,
