Ok, bad unmap size is "1".

So since this is happening in velocity_tx_srv() it has to be
velocity_free_tx_buf().  It has two cases, one for when
VELOCITY_ZERO_COPY_SUPPORT is defined and one for when that
is not defined.

There is no way to set that define that I can see in the
tree, so we only need to consider the case where this
macro is not defined:

static void velocity_free_tx_buf(struct velocity_info *vptr, struct velocity_td_info *tdinfo)
{
 ...
	if (tdinfo->skb_dma) {
		pktlen = (skb->len > ETH_ZLEN ? : ETH_ZLEN);
		for (i = 0; i < tdinfo->nskb_dma; i++) {
			pci_unmap_single(vptr->pdev, tdinfo->skb_dma[i], pktlen, PCI_DMA_TODEVICE);
			tdinfo->skb_dma[i] = 0;
		}
	}
 ...
}

It seems to me that it's impossible for 'pktlen' to every be
'1' here as the DMA debug code is claiming.  It must always
be at least ETH_ZLEN.  And that is what is passed in for the
unmap length.

David is there something wonky in your build or do you have
any local patches applied?  Is it possible that for some reason
your build is forcing VELOCITY_ZERO_COPY_SUPPORT to be defined
for some reason?

Thanks.
