I have noticed something that might be related as well.  I am working 
on a device driver that would have periodic data errors due to 
exceptionally long interrupt handling latency.  I have come to the 
point that I suspect that it's the sata_nv driver, and now that we 
can't do the hdparm -u1 option for sata, it seems to be a bigger 
problem.
