yes, with both the irq-storm patch plus your patch I've been fuzzing for
over a week with no crashes. (I'm only using your patch for the lockup
problem, not Peter's).

There are other minor warnings that pop up as per usual, and if you fuzz
with paranoid set to 1 you quickly crash with the uncore issue I reported
a while back, but otherwise things seem really solid with the two patches
I mentioned.

Of course that's what I always say just before things start crashing
again, although right now I had to stop the fuzzing temporarily as somehow
the fuzzer is leaking children for reasons I don't understand and I'm
trying to debug.
