There's a nasty memory leak in firewire-ohci's ar_context_tasklet(), in that we're not freeing up some of the memory we use for each ar_buffer, due to a moving pointer. The problem has been there for a while, but didn't start to be noticed until we were doing a coherent allocation for the ar_buffer -- meaning we have a smaller pool of memory to work with now, so the problem crops up sooner. The manifestation of this comes after doing a bunch of I/O to a firewire disk, which eventually stalls, and this starts spewing to the console:
PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space for 53248 bytes at device 0000:04:09.0
The device there is one of my FireWire controllers trying to do I/O. The host is a fairly new rev. opteron.
Just need to make sure we're freeing the correct memory range is pass through ar_context_tasklet to fix it. Probably something we ought to sneak into 2.6.25 if its still doable...
