Odd, it looks like neither a dma channel interrupt nor the timer fired
while this operation was in flight.  However, when you turn on debug
we see timer events firing as expected (ioat1_timer_event).  The
operation completes successfully ( dma->device_is_tx_complete returns
DMA_SUCCESS), but its not clear what is causing us to violate the
timeout.  Before bisecting can you try commit 1f6672d4?  This is the
state of the aysnc_tx.git tree before it was merged for 2.6.32.  If
that fails then a full bisect is the only recourse I can see to get
closer to root cause.

Thanks,
Dan
