Unfortunately under high load ARM decides to use dma_free_coherent inside dma_unmap_sg(). This as far as I can see is an ARM problem not a libata problem and one you can duplicate with other drivers under high load. If any ARM people can tell me what is going on and help fix it either in ARM or libata that would be great.
