---Problem Description---
bug from upstream commit 10b35b2b7485c342334a48cf199063eed8b8748e changes behavior of PCI DMA on PowerNV/bare-metal platforms and can result in EEH when adapter tries to read back buffer after DMA write.
 
---uname output---
Affects Wily and Xenial kernel streams. Based on code inspection, not observation in running kernel
 
Machine Type = 8348 "Habanero LC" 
 
---Steps to Reproduce---
Setup RAID volume on PMC-Sierra adapter (driver aacraid) and start a test/exerciser doing disk reads on the volume. Pull a disk from the volume and an EEH should result.
