>From the trace it looks like we git the case where swiotlb tries
to copy back data from a bounce buffer, but hits a dangling or NULL
pointer.  So a couple questions for the submitter:

 - does the system have more than 4GB memory and thus use swiotlb?
   (check /proc/meminfo, and if something SWIOTLB appears in dmesg)
 - does the device this happens on have a DMA mask smaller than
   the available memory, that is should swiotlb be used here to start
   with?
