It could be any of the devices: i2c_designware.0, idma64.0, i801_smbus, parport0 but if the parport has had issues before that could be an issue this time. it is doing about 50k interrupts/second and depending on what the interrupt handler is doing that would take out a cpu. And system time for things like this tends to hurt performance in a significant way. You might try doing a "rmmod parport ; insmod parport" and see if that "resets" it. It may or may not reset it. you might also look in /sys like this: find /sys -name "*parport*" -ls and see if there are any "controls" in there that might let you reset it. It is possible that the reboot process itself is the only thing that "resets" it. I have seen always powered hardware (usually network with wake on lan) that needs a full power removal to reset, clearly not this piece of hw since a reboot clears it.
