Just another datapoint, I've got a SuperMicro DL3 board with builtin
7892.  With 4.1-release, things work, but under load, I can get the 
system to hang or go into an endless aborting SCB/resetting SCSI bus 
loop that forces a power cycle.  With 4.1-stable, it doesn't even boot.
I get continuous "ahc0: detected spurious interrupt" messages
that prevent the system from booting.

Brandon, I'll take those patches if you've still got them lying
around.  If not, I'll try to make them myself or try to get the
latest -current aic7xxx driver to work.

Thanks,
