OK, here's a patch which does the trick for me. I put a printk_ratelimit
into the new mask_ack_msi_irq() function, then hammered my AHCI controller
with 16 threads doing directio reads to the same track of a disc. It came
up pretty reliably, so I would say it's at least minmally tested. David,
does this solve your problem?

operating system, but compare it to ours. We can't possibly take such
