The 5A limit referenced on page 14 is in regard to REVERSE current though the PMOS pass element body diode. I do not see any connection between the 'reverse current' condition where Vout > Vin, and the customer concern with peak current. Without additional details, the customer current waveform seems like typical/normal in-rush current, and is of no particular concern. Please clarify what the actual concern is.
