The patch will not apply directly against 2.6.21.5. Is it an option for
you to try 2.6.22-rc6 or are you stuck with 2.6.21.5 ?

If you feel adventurous, you will find a compile-tested-only patchkit for
2.6.21.5 here:
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/linux/kernel/2.6.x/2.6.21.5
or:
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/people/francois/misc/20060630-2.6.21.5-r8169-test.patch

The content should be almost the same as the 2.6.22-rc6 patchkit dated
from 2007/06/28 (i.e. pending 2.6.23 merge).

  Wow, great; I applied it to the kernel build this morning;
in itself, it does not stop the blocking behavior from happening.
But I will try to add the patch I mentioned in the previous messages of
which you said it shouldn't be used without applying the patchset first.
