From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The CD-ROM layer doesn't bounce requests for old ISA controllers (and nor should it). However they get injected into the SCSI layer via sr_ioctl which also doesn't bounce them and SCSI then passes the buffer along to a device with unchecked_isa_dma set which either panics or truncates the buffer to 24bits. According to Jens the right long term fix is for the CD layer to route the requests differently but in the mean time this has been tested by a victim and verified to sort the problem out. For the other 99.9% of users it's a no-op and doesn't bounce data. (akpm: placeholder fix. Apparently the metaphorical Mike is working on a real fix).
