Sounds familiar...I had a relatively clean patch in the 3.9 days, but had some issues merging along the way and haven't bothered to rebase it, so patch is not as clean as it used to be: http://dmz2.candelatech.com/git/?p=linux-3.14.dev.y/.git;a=commitdiff;h=a34e34f46fbffc627dfc2d93c508f580fbaf29e2;hp=cce0d841338348c69ae6f7ef1b2bc8a6abea3fc4 http://dmz2.candelatech.com/git/?p=linux-3.14.dev.y/.git;a=commitdiff;h=3ecefa9c9f7eed21002dad7a6540d6d250297466;hp=134543c6fec7e28bf91272ce995b550b1bf73c62 I posted the patch to the mailing lists some time back..maybe a year or two ago. If I recall, we could reproduce our problem fairly reliably by stepping an attenuator in 10 db steps while under load. I'd be curious to know if you try it out and it works for you...
