Dear kernel writers,

i got a total system hang, whenever i try to write to my mo drives.

This are 615 MB removebal drive with 1024 byte bloacksize and vfat filesys.
They are scsi I drive 5MB/sec bus speed.
On one system it is on an old ncr:SCSI storage controller: Symbios Logic
Inc. (formerly NCR) 53c810 (rev 02)

Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Vendor: Maxoptix Model: T3-1304 Rev: 11ba
Type: Optical Device ANSI SCSI revision: 02
ncr53c810-0-<5,0>: tagged command queue depth set to 8

On a second system i got an adaptec 2940 amd an IBM drive.

All is fine on any 2.2 kernal
All is locked writing to the MO using 2.4.0 or 2.4.1

What can i do to get a working system with 2.4.x and/or
to catch the bug.
