are you using the proper dma-memory allocation functions? eg
dma_alloc_coherent() etc? those will give you the right type of memory
for the intent of what you want it for...

also you forgot to post a URL to the source of your driver so it's
really hard to say for sure what you're doing wrong or what you should
be doing instead...
