I implemented the "former way".  However, when I put a breakpoint in
__dma_alloc_coherent it does not get called when I run speaker-test.
 It does get called during execution of "modprobe snd-ca0106".

Also, when I try to look at the memory allocated by the problematic
call to mmap in gdb, I get the following results:

Breakpoint 1, snd_pcm_mmap (pcm=0x10031880) at pcm_mmap.c:383
383                 ptr = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_FILE|MAP_SHARED, i->u.mmap.fd, i->u.mmap.offset);
(gdb) n
384                 if (ptr == MAP_FAILED) {
(gdb) print (void *)ptr
$1 = (void *) 0x3001e000
(gdb) print ptr[0]
Cannot access memory at address 0x3001e000

So, while these changes eliminate the bugcheck, it does not appear
to be the correct solution.
