That's what I was thinking/hoping, but...

I'm rather short on ideas too. I was really hoping the dynamic buffer
allocation patch might help too, thinking maybe these cards were just
exhausting the buffer and getting wedged, but no dice.

Oh, I should also mention that I get some lockdep spew w/the dynamic buffer
alloc patch added to the mix... (will get that report over to you via
linux1394-devel though)
