Subject: Re: watchdog timeout panic in e1000 driver

Hi,

During the holiday season, I posted a patch that fixed this problem without
using spinlocks nor disabling interrupts.
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=116649413613845&w=2

With this patch applied, I confirmed that the system doesn't panic.
I think this patch can fix this problem.
Does this patch have problems.

I welcome any comments.
