Hi

When the driver is bugged, syslogd and klogd take 100% of the CPU, even 
if I stop the network transfer. The only way to stop this is to rmmod 
wcfxo. This bug is very easy to reproduce on my computer. It's really 
when I do network transfers. It doesn't bug when I copy a file on the 
HDD. I know there are a lot of issues with IRQ with zaptel, but both 
eth1 and sata_sil have a higher IRQ number than wcfxo so they should 
have less priority right?

thanks

Xavier
