Hello Søren,

I'm triggering interrupt storms with this chipset after a few
days of stressing the HD calling sysutils/stress with stress -d 10 -i 10
and in other term, doing: 

 while true; do dd if=/dev/zero of=BAH bs=1M count=1024; done;

Right now, as reported by systat -vmstat i have 578k interrupts in atapci
and the machine is idle. Do you have any idea on how could i debug
this? any advice would be much more than welcome.

Thanks a lot.
Regards.
