I saw something similar to this when I was testing the new scsi
queueing code in the 2.3.?? series kernels. I spent some time trying to
track it down, and I concluded that the interrupt line was getting stuck
on, and as a result the interrupt handler went into an infinite loop.
This was with a AHA2910 in my case. I "solved" the problem by switching
to a different card.
