The problem is how to find the changes responsible for this instability?  I'm sure they aren't
caused by parisc specific changes.  It would take a very long time to bisect and test, and it would
be very easy to make a mistake bisecting because the issues are close to random.

So the best we can do is to analyze specific problems and try to fix them.
