I'm not certain I trust the target.  It is somewhat old and was bought
from the lowest bidder.  On the other hand, I was using this target with
a QLA21xx and NetBSD/i386 (1.6 or thereabouts) a few years ago and
didn't see this error.

The actual requested transfer size was in fact 32768.  Is this a useful
clue one way or the other?

Is there an adapter feature I could adjust in the BIOS which might have
any effect on this?  The only things changed from the defaults are
Fast Command Posting (turned on) and command throttle changed from 16 to
64.
