Hmm, this is the device you reported you have a problem initially, isn't
it? If it is, then...

... it shares its IRQ with an USB host adapter as I suspected. And you
don't have an USB driver installed. Does the following patch help? (Hmm,
since you tested 2.4.0-test* as well -- it might not as it's just a
backport... Then again -- you might hit a different problem with
2.4.0-test*.)
It's not impossible for an I/O APIC to lose an EOI message if there are
severe errors during the transmission -- since you already tried
2.4.0-test*: have you seen any APIC errors in the syslog?
