Hi Jes,
   The problem is that bus_reset drops the HOST_LOCK when it calls
schedule_timeout, but when it's called from the initialisation code,
HOST_LOCK isn't actually held.

The appended patch fixes this; however, I'm not sure that it's
correct, because I couldn't work out easily whether the HOST_LOCK is
held or not on all paths to qla1280_bus_reset().

With the patch in place, I can once again boot SMP I2000 and rx4610.
