Hi, I found a race condition that triggers a kernel panic. It's explained in the following patches, but basically the map_obj that contains the user pages is being destroyed while doing a DMA operation (which requires that map_obj). My solution is to convert the spinlock to a semaphore, and exten the area protected (which might sleep). I have not tested these specific patches; they have been forward ported. But in a similar branch, they solve the issue.
