Thanks, this indeed shows it's a regression coming from recent Andy's 
patchset. Notes and questions below:

> [    6.245173] i2c_designware AMDI0010:00: Unknown Synopsys component type: 0xffffffff

This made me scratching my head since driver probing will fail in this 
case with -ENODEV and I could not trigger runtime PM activity in such 
case but perhaps this is timing specific which happens to happen in your 
case.

Out of curiosity do you see this same "i2c_designware AMDI0010:00: 
Unknown Synopsys component type: 0xffffffff" error on Vanilla or is it 
also regression in linux-next?

I think this Oops comes because of the first commit in the patchset:

bd466a892612 ("i2c: designware: Fix PM calls order in dw_i2c_plat_probe()"

Do you see the issue if you test at that commit?

Before that commit when the i2c_dw_probe() path fails we explicitly 
disable the runtime PM before returning but now let the managed calls to 
do it. Perhaps there is some time window that runtime suspending occurs 
in parallel while drivers base is executing post probe code?

dw_i2c_plat_probe
	i2c_dw_probe
		i2c_dw_probe_master
			i2c_dw_init_regmap
				-> failure and thus dev->map is not set

i2c_dw_runtime_suspend
	i2c_dw_disable
		__i2c_dw_disable
			regmap_read(dev->map, ...)
				-> Oops because dev->map is NULL

Other PM related commit in the patchset is commit 2347b8dc0d2e ("i2c: 
designware: Consolidate PM ops") but I don't think that is the reason.
