This is a bug in the higher level code. 

A request to read 800MB of data has been 
issued, but there was no way to setup a 
scatter/gather table for that transfer
(and I doubt you had had the RAM to stuff
away the data read :)

I don't know what issues these read calls,
but it happens with other controller cards
as well, and might be a VM problem ...
