problem. I've had this driver running in my lab and at numerous client sites for quite some time and have never seen it even burp.
how hard did you push it in testing?
I've hit it with simulations of client loads as well as outright abusive load testing for several days nonstop without problem.

in some configurations i've had to subject it to many hours of
intensive IO (ie multiple concurrent and continious bonnie++ runs of
varying file sizes) in order to get it to spin inqla2x00_intr_handler. but it will eventually hang given enough IO ime. (in other configurations, heavy sustained IO will lock it up in minutes, even seconds).
Maybe I need to load bonnie++ in the lab and see what happens.
