[Bug 53216] Re: BUG() report in getnstimeofday: soft lockup

I've been encountering this bug since dapper, I'd assumed it was a bug
in the kernel's networking due to the lots of weird packets skype sends
to try to get around nat, but these comments make it seem likely that
it's audio related.

Is there a way to get copious alsa debugging to see what skype is
sending to the audio drivers?

I've been seeing this on a compaq laptop and an hp laptop, both using
snd_ac97_codec and snd_intel8x0, but  obviously the amd machines seeing
this aren't using intel8x0.
