As you've written below, you used setserial to enable DMA mode. I used my own
application for that using 2 ioctls.

The issue is only printed once. steps in short:
* Enable DMA
* Send 270 chars

Ok. I have a 2.6.39 kernel with the following patches:
pch_phub: Don't panic if dmi_get_system_info returns NULL
drivers/tty/serial/pch_uart.c: don't oops if dmi_get_system_info returns NULL
pch_uart: Add console support

I need these to get a booting board with console support on pch_uart.
After boot (dma and pch_uart compiled into kernel), I do
* setserial /dev/ttyPCH0 ^low_latency
* ./raise_dma_fault
<- Here I get the message

For the reference the used code for raise_dma_fault:
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <linux/serial.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd;
char buf[270];

fd = open ("/dev/ttyPCH0", O_RDWR);
write (fd, buf, 270);

close (fd);
return 0;
}

Maybe you need to enable CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING
additionally to see the messages.

Regards,
Alexander
