The nvme issue remains, it occurs in systems where the only the NVMe device is the only PCIe device. It turns out I did not have kdump started for the other two cases, so I now have crashdumps for: a) Crash on ahci module load https://user.fm/files/v2-b292f37d90102413f7eb4af2b47dc3be/bug-1187701-ahci-crash.tar b) Crash on ath10k_pci module load https://user.fm/files/v2-8a9b2e2fe9203736ec0f9bea779294c3/bug-1187701-ath10k_pci-crash.tar In both of the above, the relevant PCIe device is the only card installed. Interesting to note that both the above occur through PCI probing: [ 124.230047] Call trace: [ 124.232492] ahci_enable_ahci+0x20/0x90 [libahci] [ 124.237196] ahci_save_initial_config+0x34/0x390 [libahci] [ 124.242689] ahci_init_one+0x360/0xd7c [ahci] [ 124.247044] local_pci_probe+0x44/0x98 [ 124.250790] pci_device_probe+0x130/0x1c0 [ 167.941476] Call trace: [ 167.943923] ath10k_pci_wake_wait+0x44/0xf0 [ath10k_pci] [ 167.949236] ath10k_pci_wake.part.6+0xf4/0x138 [ath10k_pci] [ 167.954810] ath10k_bus_pci_write32+0x88/0xd8 [ath10k_pci] [ 167.960322] ath10k_ce_deinit_pipe+0x5c/0x218 [ath10k_core] [ 167.965896] ath10k_pci_probe+0x44c/0x828 [ath10k_pci] [ 167.971034] local_pci_probe+0x44/0x98 [ 167.974779] pci_device_probe+0x130/0x1c0 [ 167.978786] really_probe+0xdc/0x448 [ 167.982357] driver_probe_device+0x12c/0x148 [ 167.986623] device_driver_attach+0x74/0x98 [ 167.990801] __driver_attach+0x6c/0x168
