Does mt7612 use MSI? What we have here is a bogus mutex in the
MTK PCIe driver, and the only way not to get there would be
to avoid using MSIs.

Can you retest without any additional patch on top of 5.11?
These two patches only affect platforms that do *not* have MSIs at all.

I don't think a HW bug affecting PCI would cause what we are seeing
here, unless it results in memory corruption.
