Since the -enqueue function stores references to the SKBs,

The only case I can see which might trigger this is if we saved
pci-X state and then didn't restore it because we could not find
the capability on restore.

regular devices and seem to ignore the fact that for bridge PCI-X

Hello.
The BUG_ON() check at move_freepages() is wrong.
Its end_page is start_page + MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. So, it can be

invocation.
This is deemed too costly, hence re-instate the msync
