Confirming this option is enabled for Trusty and Utopic, creating tasks
there.  Currently, the discussion is still ongoing, but the primary bug
seems to be that DMA requests for order 0 pages are being passed into
CMA which makes no sense and triggers the issue.   We are expecting a
patch for that to be pushed upstream shortly.
