David Hauweele noticed that the mrf24j40 would hang arbitrarily after some period of heavy traffic. Two race conditions were discovered, and the driver was changed to use threaded interrupts, since the enable/disable of interrupts in the driver has recently been a lighning rod whenever issues arise related to interrupts (costing engineering time), and since threaded interrupts are the right way to do it.
