Hi James, I have looked into the patch thoroughly. We suspect this change might expose an old legacy interrupt issue on some processors. We are currently debugging and digging further details to be able to explain it in much detailed fashion. I will keep you the thread posted as soon as we have something interesting.

Did this ever get looked at? As this exact patch was merged into the vendor aacraid a while ago I'm not sure why it wouldn't be good to merge to mainline as well.
