diffstat will tell.

 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_core.c      |   33 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm.c       |  559 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm.h       |    7 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c      |   24 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_osm.c       |   45 
 b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_osm.h       |    5 

There are large numbers of changes to scsi core as well.  And MD.  And
everything else.

Can no info be obtained from sysrq-P or sysrq-T?

If it's running X then I'd suggest you quit from X overnight, see if
anything pops up on the screen, and to simplify using sysrq.
