    The Inventra DMA controller has serious DMA length limitation, so the whole 
transfer may take more than one DMA.

    Yes, and here lies the problem.

    Then what problem this patch fixes, if not this one?

    Let me repeat: in the PIO mode the added check is just duplicate, in the DMA 
mode it's added too late in the code, after ZLP/short packet send is triggered.
We should modify the check at the top of that code instead.
