    i'd suggest to postpone this issue for the time being, the SMP hardware
    in question produces 'mysterious' latencies in other, very unexpected
    places as well. I suspect there's some issue that hits whatever code
    happens to run - and the es1371 driver is used for the latency testing.
    So i believe it's just an innocent bystander. I'd suggest to look at
    these again if they pop up after the 'mysterious' latency source is
    found.
