It requires some large changes to each bus mastering ISA device driver,
so I don't know how realistic it is to use bus dma to fix these kinds
of problems in the short term.  I don't mind adding bus dma support to
drivers I need to re-write/modify heavily  anyway (i.e. for it to work
in a CAM environment), but I'm loath to do the work twice and modify the
current SCSI drivers.
