Hi Michael,

Here is the output message displayed on the console when the bug occurred:

[    0.000517] irq: (null) didn't like hwirq-0x1000a00 to VIRQ16 mapping
(rc=-22)
[    0.000578] hvsi_console_init: couldn't create irq mapping for 0x1000a00

With the patch is applied, the hvsi driver is initializing correctly and
no message is displayed, except the one saying the number of device the
hvsi driver has configured. For instance:
[    1.535783] HVSI: registered 1 devices

Cheers,
Laurent.
