Well I don't know, but something is going wrong and causing the soft
lock up.  I must admit I am surprised if an interrupt can occour while
handling an interrupt, but then again maybe that is supposed to be
allowed.

I tried building a kernel where the only change was enabling the spin
lock debugging.  It doesn't fail, while without spin lock debugging it
seemed to fail very frequently.  Darn!  I hate when debugging makes hides
the problem.

Can you try running on another Geode LX system, just to rule out a
hardware problem on you board?
