Hi folks,

I have some problems with the Compaq WL200 wireless card. The Compaq
WL200 is actually a prism2 based pcmcia card on a Cirrus Logic PD6927
PCMCIA<->PCI bridge. The problem is as following:

 Whenever the card is present the system will hard lockup whenever any
 heavy I/O on the scsi subsystem (AIC7890) is done. It will always lockup
 after around 500 megabytes of data is written (dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile).
 It generates a oops of which i have 2 different dumps available. 1
 without the prism2 (the hostap driver version 2002-04-10) and i82356 driver
 (from pcmcia-cs 3.1.33) (oops-1) and one with them loaded (oops-2). The
 system itself is a Celeron 400 on a P2B-S (i440BX based) motherboard
 (with BIOS 1014Beta1)

 I have been having these problems for quite some while ago on a variety
 of kernels ranging from 2.4.9 -> 2.4.19-pre5-ac3

 I have included the 2 ksymoops analyzed oopses, output of lspci -vvvxx
 (with and without the PCI card) kernel-configuration and /proc/scsi/scsi
 contents.
