Ok I am seeing another issue with the e1000e port on 02:00.0..:

As i start to push multiple badblocks tests RAMDISK_DR iSCSI Logical
units into KVM Guest running LIO v2.6.29.2 from the external Linux/iSCSI
Initiator machine, after about 100 GB of iSCSI traffic, I see the
following exception in KVM host v2.6.30-rc3:

DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
DMAR:[DMA Write] Request device [02:00.0] fault addr 7fc958b010000
DMAR:[fault reason 04] Access beyond MGAW
pci-stub 0000:02:00.0: irq 59 for MSI/MSI-X
pci-stub 0000:02:00.0: irq 60 for MSI/MSI-X
pci-stub 0000:02:00.0: irq 61 for MSI/MSI-X

I am able to restart the LIO-Target KVM Guest and the Linux/iSCSI
Initiators are able to reconnect.. Wow, very cool..

Not sure if this is a bug in the target_core_mod RAMDISK_DR subsystem
plugin (mapping struct iovec to internally allocated struct page) or
what. I will have to look at the DMAR code to understand what this
exception means..
