Re: [PATCH] firewire: fix some broken hardware NMI interrupt

[JiSheng Zhang]

Hi,
after a lot of test today, the problem appears again. Now it also emit a similar
message even applied my patch. Tested on 2.6.25-4 and 2.6.26-rc3.
The via chip is VT6306. How can I dig into this problem more?

CU,
JiSheng
