I've now managed to hit this fairly reliably with
'gem_ringfill --r render' + ctrl-c straight after boot.

To me it looks like some kind of bigger mess with olr. If olr was already there,
logical_ring_alloc_request() will do absolutely nothing, which means the ringbuf
won't even be pinned/mapped and ringbug->virtual_start will remain NULL. And that
leads to the w/a init to call iowrite() with some close to 0 iomem addressses.

I'm not sure how this is supposed to actually work. To me it looks olr should never
be allowed to be != NULL when creating the context/ringbuf to avoid this problem. And
yet somehow the presence of olr doesn't always trigger the 'bad IO access' warns. In
fact I can't seem to trigger it more than once until I reboot the machine. I tried to
add a warning [1] to catch all cases when olr is already there, and it will trigger in
most cases when I hit ctrl-c while running gem_ringfill. And yet the 'Bad IO access'
doesn't follow it except once after boot.
