 What I did:
      - applied your patch to my tree
      - switched back to GENERIC (including WITNESS option)
      - enabled HIFN_DEBUG in my config
 
 But no change at all.  The dd command still hangs up after
 a couple of minutes and the only way out is to reboot.
 
 Also I don't see any debug output from the hifn driver. 
 
 Now I'm on
 FreeBSD labs.foonic.org 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #0: Wed Feb 25 11:15:04 CET 2009     root@labs.foonic.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
 
 The sourcetree is from 2009-02-20.
