It doesn't fix the ffs stall issue for me either, but I have not seen this panic though.

It's interesting to see this panic because dma unmapping is what I'm looking at right now.
When I see the ffs stalls, the problem seems to be that a read request of 512 bytes returning
right away with a buffer filled with all zeros. And that is happening after a bunch of requests
of 16384 bytes. I'm suspecting the dma as well, because the completion interrupt for this
request of 512 bytes seems to be fired mistakenly.

I don't always have time to work on this issue though, might not update for a while. Please
keep me posted if you find anything.

Thanks,
