Not much progress here.  I've only ported my SMP patch up to 2.6.12. 
Supersparc seems to be as stable under SMP as UP, but hypersparcs keep 
giving me problems.

I've tried an experiment of setting the cache mode to write-through on 
hypersparc and now it crashes early on.  Maybe someone might have some 
insight into what's happening:
