So there is one simple work around you can try for the pure kexec case
remove the module before calling sys_reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_KEXEC)

Beyond that it looks like the driver of one kernel puts the cards in
a state another kernel cannot get it out of.  So I would send a bug
report to the driver maintainer.
