One possible reason for unresponsive keyboard is a workqueue job in the 
shared workqueue sleeping very long or indefinitely.

Sky2.c has only one workqueue job: sky2_restart().
Yeah.

Marcus, please try something like this:

- become root

- run

	( sleep 10 ; echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger ) &
	ifdown eth0

- wait a minute or so

- reboot

- See if the sysrq-t output made it to /var/log/messages

  If it did, please send it as reply-to-all to this email.  Try to avoid
  wordwrapping it, as many do.

Thanks.
