Ouch.. that means all that someone issued a multiple segment data transfer with a 2 byte aligned chunk in the middle. That is a bit of a suprise because we set blk_queue_dma_alignment to 3 so the block layer should never hand us an sg list in that form. That means we've either got a block layer bug or someone somewhere is generating invalid sg lists internally to libata. Can you dump qc->cdb[] and see what command is getting issued in the broken form ?
