1. Bug in ARM64 DMA subsystem.

3. Bug in another newly introduced driver. The new driver would hog the

times out.

Which driver?

Wouldn't these problems already be exposed by dmatest? I was asking whether it's possible that, every now and then, your DMA internal test could fail and then the driver would unload. I'm not talking about hard bugs in other code that always causes the DMA driver test to fail.
