the fixes are in 2.1.90 now. I have a quite complex SCSI setup, and i've
been running with the NMI watchdog that also checks for the above cli/sti
bug (and other spinlock bugs), and i saw no problems so far. Any SCSI
lockup with 2.1.90 should thus be considered a major bug, mail me and i
get it fixed ASAP.
