Synopsis:
Receiving DMAR and other errors after approximately three days of
uptime. The symptoms exactly match errors seen and then fixed around
2.6.32.4.
While the system remains unaffected for too long to do a bisect, I was
able to confirm that the problem exists in the 3.1 stable branch (I
jumped from 3.0 to 3.2 when 3.2. was released).
For now I reverted to the sky2.c from 3.0.9 and am running the rest of
the kernel from 3.1.2, but won't be certain that this works until
later in the week.
Note that 20 seconds prior to the log extract below were DHCP renewal
attempts on eth1, the issue below was on eth0. Not sure it's relevant,
however back in 2010 a preceding DHCP event did turn out to be
relevant to the manifestation of the bug.
The 3.2.1-dirty I'm running is from git with a single local patch -
for sidewinder force-feedback support (shouldn't be relevant to the
sky2 issue).

FYI - I've been up for four days now without issues running on 3.2.1 +
sky2.c from 3.0.9. Looks like the issue is in fact in one of the
modifications made in sky2.c between those two releases.
