It looks like the driver is trying to free DMA coherent memory with irqs
disabled, which is a big no-go on most non-coherent architectures (which
includes parisc).

The DMA coherent code in this driver is pretty convoluted, but I'll see
what I can do.  The warning has been there for a couple kernel release,
and the issue basically goes back to day 0 of support for non-coherent
architectures.
