I recently found a bug that could match this description. The following
patch fixes this, but currently I don't now what other places might be
affected. It's a matter of reviewing all places where dma_inv_range is
used. Does the problem persist when you turn off the MMU?

Subject: [PATCH] USB gadget fsl: request cacheline aligned buffer

The fsl udc driver allocates a buffer for small requests. The
driver then calls dma_inv_range later on it. This buffer happens
to be not cacheline aligned which means that a dma_inv_range can
corrupt other memory around the buffer.
