I also created a vimdiff of both logs, and I noted something that caused the whole difference later:
On the OK kernel, I see: [0001:03:00.0]-001d: : Found an ISP2532 irq 41 iobase 0x00000000db2a8857. On the NOK kernel I see: [0001:03:00.0]-001d: : Found an ISP2532 irq 41 iobase 0x000000006baeaf0e. Later, The addresses are different again: OK Kernel: [0001:03:00.1]-001d: : Found an ISP2532 irq 42 iobase 0x00000000c67eaba1 NOK Kernel: [0001:03:00.1]-001d: : Found an ISP2532 irq 42 iobase 0x00000000507ae35c After that, the OK kernel follows with: [0001:03:00.0]-580e:2: Asynchronous P2P MODE received [0001:03:00.0]-18b9:2: Format 1: VP[0] enabled - status 0 - with port id 050500.
