Dear Tim Harvey,
> An imprecise abort is triggered when a port behind a switch is accessed
> and no device is present. At enumeration, imprecise aborts are not enabled
> thus this ends up getting deferred until the kernel has completed init. At
> that point we must not adjust PC - the handler must do nothing, but a
> handler must exist.
>
> This fixes random crashes that occur right after freeing init.
> This is against linux-pci/host-imx6.
