That was without the driver loaded (blacklisted). After loading (with
interrupts enabled) we get:
Interrupt: pin B routed to IRQ 20

The issue has occured on at least three x3550s (we have 11). I haven't
tested more, because knowingly crashing production machines sucks.
This appears to be the case on other machines. With the module
blacklisted (never loaded), lspci shows IRQ 0. After load, IRQ 20.
(tested on 3.4 and 3.9).

Yes, but only for monitoring/sensors, if that makes a difference.

Done.

Returned immediately:

$ i2cdetect -l

Yep, that one hangs. The hung task handler picked it up after a few
minutes.
