Do you guys that work with the FEC driver ever run with
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled?

I ask this Because I get this error when it's turned on when I do some
"rsync" transfer to my device:

The amount of data transferred isn't even huge:

sent 382,979 bytes  received 28,086 bytes  32,885.20 bytes/sec
total size is 147,758,955  speedup is 359.45



This happens with:

* Kernel 4.5
* Kernel 4.5.1
* Kernel 4.5.1 with the fec-related patches from 4.6-rc3
* Kernel 4.5.1 with the fec-related patches from 4.6-rc3 and Troy's
  patch series from this thread


Should I post an extra e-mail with "BUG" in the subject?
