As a follow up, I still have this problem in 3.10.0-rc1+ (and the patch
by Andrew to fix buggy dma source devices still fixes it).
Andrew, have you done anything with your DMA source patch since you last
posted it? I'm still using it and it still makes my computer happy.
I'd happily switch to a newer revision of the patch instead of carrying
a rebased version of what you posted in March.
