In the mean time you can if you wish look into the driver and see where
you can drop the io_request lock as some other drivers do. In the case of
scsi the request itself shouldnt be an issue, but unlike 2.0 the irqs
and the normal threads can be running in parallel on 2.1.x so you need
to check the locking is safe. If you do that your irq performance will
return.
