That is also a problem but I fixed those accesses in my local kernel before
hitting this issue. If we do register accesses in FIMD/DP probe/bind we
observes "Prefetch abort" exception. But here the problem is that 'DP
domain disable' starts failing if we enable/disable multiple times.

Please let me know the links for posted patches. I will test with those patches.
