[svlug] hda: lost interrupt

[peecoh@sparc.nu]

It's just that I saw a thread on the kernel mailing list that there were
more people having this problem but no came up with a solution there.  I
tried a new harddrive alittle while ago too, but the same problem.
The problem seems to occur when there is alot of writing to the disk.
