Hi Christian,

Would you mind trying this patch?

commit 9d36a93af8fe ("PCI: j721e: Initialize pcie->cdns_pcie before using it")
Author: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
Date:   Thu Jan 27 15:49:49 2022 -0600

    PCI: j721e: Initialize pcie->cdns_pcie before using it
    
    Christian reported a NULL pointer dereference in j721e_pcie_probe() caused
    by 19e863828acf ("PCI: j721e: Drop redundant struct device *"), which
    removed struct j721e_pcie.dev since there's another copy in struct
    cdns_pcie.dev reachable via j721e_pcie->cdns_pcie->dev.
    
    The problem is that j721e_pcie->cdns_pcie was dereferenced before being
    initialized:
    
      j721e_pcie_probe
        pcie = devm_kzalloc()             # struct j721e_pcie
        j721e_pcie_ctrl_init(pcie)
          dev = pcie->cdns_pcie->dev      <-- dereference cdns_pcie
        switch (mode) {
        case PCI_MODE_RC:
          cdns_pcie = ...                 # alloc as part of pci_host_bridge
          pcie->cdns_pcie = cdns_pcie     <-- initialize pcie->cdns_pcie
    
    Initialize pcie->cdns_pcie before it is used.
    
    Fixes: 19e863828acf ("PCI: j721e: Drop redundant struct device *")
