Hello,

What will happen?

- ATA will be broken for >= 4 GB RAM forever
- (as Søren requested) busdma will be fixed (whatever it means)

If nothing from the above two, would it be possible to either revert the 
changes made after october 8 at least for RELENG_6 or to workaround the 
 >=4 GB memory case?

Thanks,
