Thanks.  That fixes the soft lockup.

I've got another problem now. The cards I'm using are dual port (sk-9844). I am bonding both ports together.

The card presents as eth2 and eth3. If I remove eth2 from the bond so that eth3 is the active interface, I get a hard lock (nothing prints to serial console, sysrq isn't responsive) and have to power cycle.

This is with plain 2.6.20.1. I also tested using skge.[ch] from the current netdev git tree.

[SKGE]: Fix deadlock in skge_tx_timeout

dev_watchdog() already holds the device lock, don't take it again in
skge_tx_clean().
