This patch doesn't behave well when an iommu (VT-d) is involved.
Booting an X58 chipset based system with intel_iommu=on with 3.0.0-rc1
results in the warning below.  Looks like the driver is trying to unmap
0x0.  Eventually something worse happens and the system reports a few
iommu faults from the device before panicing.  Neither problem is
observed if 432aa7ed is reverted.  tg3 device in use is a BCM5755.
Thanks,

Alex
