Both return 32 bit address, debugging further I see that with
GFP_KERNEL flag for small buffer
sizes the read/write/copy tests pass(upto 4k), so I am suspecting its
related to caching probably.
Also adding wmb()/rmb() just with GFP_KERNEL flag didn't help. Note I
am using PIO transfers.
Any thoughts on how we tackle it ?
