Hi Stephen,

A bug was opened against the Ubuntu kernel[0]. A bug has also been
opened in bugzilla[1]. After a kernel bisect, it was found that
reverting the following commit resolved this bug:

skge: add dma_mapping check


The regression was introduced as of v3.11-rc6.

I see that you are the author of this patch, so I wanted to run this by
you. I was thinking of requesting a revert for v3.11, but I wanted to
get your feedback first.


Thanks,

Joe
