It appears this problem might be caused by the system HPET timer not
functioning properly. I was noticing strange behavior in my rc0.d
shutdown scripts where the script would freeze in a 'sleep 1'. Sure
enough, even running a 'sleep 1' form a normal prompt just made the
system hang indefinitely (until I hit ctrl-C). If I unload sky2 and
then install a different clock source (jiffies, tsc, etc) and reload
the module, it all appears to work properly. This is very, very
strange. I'll bring this up on the kernel mailing list in a different
post focusing on the HPET config.
Thanks,
-Andrew
