Hi Krishna,
I wanted to confirm whether the controller is dead and whether any
attempt to access the controller at this point can be fatal to the
system (such as SMMU fault). I believe your patches prevents SMMU fault
on first failure. I'm not sure what will happen after if we attempt a
retry.
Regardless, your changes are good for now. If we need to make further
enhancement in the future, we'll do that later.
Many thanks for the tests,
Thinh
