Yes I already updated this to dev_dbg in my patchset.

Sorry, but i couldn't get why will we get a crash here.
pl08x_phy_channel_busy() looks like this:
static int pl08x_phy_channel_busy(struct pl08x_phy_chan *ch)
{
unsigned int val;
val = readl(ch->base + PL080_CH_CONFIG);
return val & PL080_CONFIG_ACTIVE;
}
ch->base is already initialized and clock is enabled by amba layer.
Sorry if I am missing something Obvious.
