As nasty as the bug might be, given that we haven't had too much
problem with that, I think it would be best to give it some time to be
tested before releasing it to users.  It causes behavior differences
for all bmdma drivers which implement custom bmdma_stop.  It's an
apparent bug fix but well the nasty ones are always apparent bug
fixes, right?  :-)

Thanks.
