Hi Robert,

Despite all the work that went into making these less frequent with ADMA,
they're still possible to trigger.

alistair@damocles:~$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.21-rc2-damocles (root@damocles) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)) #1 SMP Wed Feb 28 21:58:41 GMT 2007

alistair@damocles:~$ dmesg | tail -n 13

sda: Write Protect is off
sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00
SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA

These cause the same ~30 second stalls. Machine was not under load.

No 3rd party modules were loaded.
