Were you able to reproduce it?  If it actually is the same problem
(ATAPI DMA timing out on data transfers of certain size), it should be
reproducible when you repeat the same thing.

(Cc'ing Alan) Alan, this was one of those weird ATAPI DMA cases which
were fixed by transfer size alignment check in check_atapi_dma().  The
controller is sata_sil, so I don't think it was a controller problem.

Thanks.
