Specifically, in these chipsets DMA transfers that cross a page boundary result in data corruption. The workaround is to not allow any DMA transfers for non-static DMA maps (i.e. "real" transfers as opposed to work areas allocated with bus_dmamem_alloc()) to cross a page in a single S/G element. This behavior is enabled by setting 'busdma_pyxis_bug' to 1. - Add a new tunable 'machdep.busdma_pyxis_bug' that can be used to enable the workaround from the loader. This can be used to enable it on chipsets where we don't automatically enable it. - Auto-enable the workaround for buggy PYXIS 1 chipsets supported via cia(4).
