What boards have we seen this on? It's quite possible this is:
I can reproduce on an Asus P5K with a Core 2 Duo E6600.
lspci identifies the controller as:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Attansic Technology Corp. L1 Gigabit
Ethernet Adapter (rev b0)
dmesg notes the PCI-DMA mapping implementation:
PCI-DMA: Using software bounce buffering for IO (SWIOTLB)
I had a hunch this was on Intel. I'd rather just disable this when
swiotlb is in use, unless we get more complaints. It's probably
ultimately a BIOS quirk anyway.
So far we have reports from both camps:
Asus M2N8-VMX (AM2): 1 report of lockup

Asus P5K (LGA775): 2 reports of lockups

The common denominator in these reports is 4GB RAM.
Although its possible this device doesn't really support 64-bit, it's
more likely that this is a platform problem of some sort, or a driver
bug of some sort. In the driver, maybe it has a problem when you
-cross- a 4GB boundary, which is not uncommon.
