Something is really wrong with page alloc on this one. Compiled 2.6.19-rc6-rt5
with the one patch to page_alloc.c as posted on the list here.

Just an additional fixup: the default state should be carrier off.

Why? I'm not much of a C language lawyer, but I would have thought
that in something like
(x) + _a - 1
the "1" will be promoted to the type of the rest of the expression
without any explicit cast. I tested the unsigned long

New drivers since 2.6.16.33:
- Echoaudio sound drivers
- driver for HighPoint RocketRAID 3xxx Controllers
- AdvanSys SCSI driver (actually the semi-working driver that was
previously marked as broken)
Patch location:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/bunk/linux-
DVB_AV7110_FIRMWARE was (except for some OSS drivers) the only option
that was still compiling a binary-only user-supplied firmware file at
build-time into the kernel.
This patch changes the driver to always use the standard
request_firmware() way for firmware by removing DVB_AV7110_FIRMWARE.

The controller also supports MSI and (at least with my chipset - G965)
it works fine:

which is nice, otherwise it ends up sharing the IRQ with SATA and USB.
