Is this also a regression, or did it happen before the vmap-stack
change? If this only
appeared now, then this points to another bug somewhere that you
should find using
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG.

I think what is going on here is that your platform is able to detect
the broken DMA
because of the l3 interrupt handler telling the kernel about it, when
on other platforms
we would see either silent data corruption or a DMA that never reaches
its target.
