I dont think this patch will be sufficient - There is another problem with the driver - What for example happens if we are in the gdth_interrupt - we do have locked the HA because we are not in polling mode. Then the error handler kicks in and sets polling_mode to TRUE - Now the gdth_interrupt will not unlock the HA which will get one cpu to keep spinning in the error handler.
I think calling the gdth_interrupt in polling and non-polling mode is bogus by design.
