Recently I noticed that the PLL clock being detected higher than expected as 20MHz on my box. (It used be 16.6 MHz since my PCI bus is running at 33MHz...) Reloading the pata_pdc2027x module then the problem goes away. I guess maybe somehow mdelay() is not as precise as before... -- albert (dmesg attached for reference) The PLL clock is wrongly detected as 20MHz on my box, kernel 2.6.22-rc3.
