Hmm, I'm interested in how you found this and/or how it manifested itself.
I had lots and lots of cache-looking problems with the Intel GigE card in
my O2 and trying the obvious things (using the generic arch/mips/mips/bus_
dma.c code, disabling L2) didn't make it go away.  I guess I should give
it a try again.

Thanks again for all the work, I think I owe you a few {beers/cookies/
whatever else one can bribe you with :-)
