Hmm. When I see work on floppy.c, I end up wondering what happened to
the work by Stephen to use a single threaded workqueue?

That was reported to fix a KVM oops at some point to to avoiding the
whole race between interrupts/workqueues, but it seems to have dropped
off everybody's radar. I don't think anybody ever tested it on real
hardware, but I'm still wondering..

Anybody?
