I wonder if this issue you describe here is similar to what I'm seeing
on E850-96. When I'm trying to read these files

    /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/dummy-syscon at 0x0000000010020000/registers
    /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/dummy-chipid at 0x0000000010000000/registers
    /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/dummy-system-controller at 0x0000000011860000/registers

I'm seeing "synchronous external abort" during regmap operations
(judging from the backtrace). Do you think this series fixes the same
issue on gs101? If so, I'd probably want to adapt it for Exynos850
later.
