Hi Rene,

according to these posts [1][2] by Iggi, you figured out the stability problem
with newer kernels on older SPARC machines. There has been a regression on older
SPARCs since around kernel 4.19.x which I haven't gotten around to bisecting yet.

If you've found and fixed the bug in question, it would be great if you could share
your fix with the community and maybe whip up a kernel patch to fix the bug upstream.

Newer SPARCs are not affected by this bug, although there are other issues.

Thanks,
Adrian
