Hello!
I see similar effects with IDE DMA. It isn't that bad but it may be
related.
The difference is that I use 2.2.18. Whether I use the
ide.2.2.18.1209.patch or not makes no difference.
My box doesn't lockup, but since I bought a second IDE harddisk I cannot
use DMA anymore.
Boot messages from IDE-driver:

My BIOS reject harddisks bigger than 33.8GB. It's a ASUSP2T4 with Intel
HX430 chipset.

On my box it looks like this (it happens after copying a big amount of
data from /dev/hda to /dev/hdc):
[...]
hdc: timeout waiting for DMA
ide_dmaproc: chipset supported ide_dma_timeout func only: 14
hdc: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }
hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
hdc: DMA disabled

ide1: reset: success
msp34xx: giving up, reseting chip. Sound will go off, sorry folks :-|
hda: timeout waiting for DMA
ide_dmaproc: chipset supported ide_dma_timeout func only: 14
hda: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
hda: DMA disabled
ide0: reset: success
[...]
The line
msp34xx: giving up...
makes me think it's also related to bttv.
The difference to Dan's problem is that I can use my box after this. But
DMA stays disabled.
I can reenable DMA on both harddisks, but after some time I get the same
messages again.

Okay, I thought 'use the source Luke' and looked at ide.c.
I tried some boot-time parameters and had success with "ide0=serialize
ide1=serialize".
After reboot I can use DMA just fine and my box is stable.
Now I get this boot messages:
die-macht kernel: ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
die-macht kernel: ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 (serialized with
ide0)
I seems to work and DMA isn't getting disabled when I access my disks.
Greetings,
Stefan
