I'm not sure who's responsible for this, but the nonblocking MMC stuff is
broken on OMAPs HSMMC:

Luckily thinks continue to work, but clearly releasing DMA mappings which
drivers don't own is bad news.  Unfortunately, I don't have the bandwidth
to be able to investigate this at present - well, I could do but then I'd
have to drop working on the OMAP4 vs generic suspend/resume code and learn
about something I've no current clue about.
Please continue your help on generic suspend.

Can someone please investigate and fix whatever is broken.
Will find somebody to look at this issue.
I had a look at this and my guess is that the same mapped DMA memory
is unmapped twice. First the memory is unmapped in
omap_hsmmc_dma_cleanup() due to the mmc error, then later in
omap_hsmmc_post_req(). Here is a patch to resolve that. I haven't had
the chance to test it yet though.

I also checked the mmci code for this same issue and mmci doesn't have
the same bug.
MMCI works fine in 3.1-rc2 even though the code is "wrong". I propose
this change.

I'll post these patches as soon as I have managed to test them or
sooner if I get a tested-by.
