The attached patch should fix the problem:
the dma_timer_expiry handler calls HWGROUP(drive)->handler in the wrong
context. Instead of calling ->handler directly, the ->expiry handler
must inform the caller that ->handler must be called, and then the
caller must do some setup before calling ->handler.
