I re-run the many fsx tests with feral driver on 2.5.70mm9, ext3
 fileystems, on deadline scheduler and as scheduler respectively.  Both
 tests passed.  They were running for more than 24 hours without any
 problems. So it could be a bug in the device driver that I used
 before(QLA2xxx V8).  Before the fsx tests failed on ext3 on either
 deadline scheduler or as scheduler.

Well it could be a bug in the driver, or it could be a bug in the generic
block/iosched area which was just triggered by the particular way in which
that driver exercises the core code.

James, do we have the latest-and-greatest version of the qlogic driver
in-tree?  ISTR that there's an update out there somewhere?
