The better restart work was added in 2.6.31 I think, so it is only in
the recent driver that you will have a smooth recovery after a failure.
You may thus be seeing the same problem as Helmut, with him running the

Even if the restart code gets you up and running smoothly after a
failure, please do submit a bug report so that we can look into this.
