Can you give some reasons why this would occur?

Need to be clear if this is:
1) Hardening against device returning borked table.
2) Hardening against in flight update of CDAT racing with the readout
   (not sure table can change size, but maybe.. I haven't checked).
3) DW read back vs packed structures?

Patch seems reasonable to me, I'd just like a clear statement of why
it happens!
