In the following sequence of calls, iop_do_send() gets called when the "send" channel is not in the IOP_MSG_IDLE state: iop_ism_irq() iop_handle_send() (msg->handler)() iop_send_message() iop_do_send() Avoid this by testing the channel state before calling iop_do_send(). When sending, and iop_send_queue is empty, call iop_do_send() because the channel is idle. If iop_send_queue is not empty, iop_do_send() will get called later by iop_handle_send().
