Perhaps a hint as to how we can fix this up?  This is the first time
I've heard of the comedi code not handling dma properly.
It can be fixed by:

 a) never calling virt_to_page (or vmalloc_to_page for that matter)
    on dma allocation
 b) never remapping dma allocation with conflicting cache modes
    (no remapping should be doable after a) anyway).
