because it'll get buried pages back in my mailbox.

I myself have no experience of the ARM7500FE, especially the sound
stuff.

However, iirc, the DMA controller has two buffers, and Linux is
supposed to set both buffers up, fire off the DMA.  When the first
buffer completes, it has sufficient time to reprogram the first
buffer before the second one completes.

Note that adding printk's into the DMA support stuff will definitely
cause it to miss the required timings.

Apart from that, I can't really help much more - I don't have functional
ARM7500FE hardware to test this on.
