It's completely unrelated :-) But the fault was in the IDE driver doing cache flushes too late after starting to set up DMA. To diagnose it, we luckily found a reproducible test case, then sprinkled full cache flushes at various places to narrow it down, and eventually found that one full cache flush in the driver itself sorted it out, which told us where the fault was. From there it was easy. -- Jamie -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
