Anyways it looks like the discussion here is going in a
a loop. I had hoped David would post his test results with
another port so that we know for sure that the bus aborts (and not port 80) is the problem on his box. But it looks like
he doesn't want to do this. Still removing the bus aborts
is probably the correct way to go forward.

Yes, I do also still want to know that. David (Reed)?

Only needs a patch now. If nobody beats me to it i'll
add one later to my tree.

Pavel Machek already posted one. His udelay(8) wants to be less -- 1 or "to be safe" perhaps 2.
