Description of problem:
I have got one XEN instance called "gateway" running; it owns the ipw3945 
device to route WLAN traffic to the internal eth:

# for installation while being connected to a network with DHCP, remove the ip

The system is registered against webqa. If I try to run an update or create 
any other heavy disk/net IO, the system looses the disk:
[root@t60p-jschrode ~]# yum update
[...]
irq21: nobody cared
[...]
Disabling IRQ #21

Now the system disk is not accessible anymore, journal cannot be committed.
I attach a screenshot with the complete message.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a XEN guest with a dedicated PCI (network) device on a T60p
2. run "yum update" or produce heavy net/disk IO


Actual Results:
IRQ ist lost, SATA disk not accessible anymore, working with the system not 
possible anymore

Expected Results:
./.
