SMP related issues

Hello Jouni,

I downloaded the CVS version from 3 days ago, and have now had a chance to
try it.

I have a 2 x Celeron 433, Linux 2.4.21, and a Netgear MA311, running
hostap_pci.

I use PPTP VPN, and connected as per usual to my linux box. I then ftp'ed to
the box, and tried to send a 14 meg file. After about 4 meg, the linux
machine froze. I looked at the console, and all I see is a lot of "could not
find matching txfid for alloc event" followed by about 3 card resets about
5-8 seconds apart, and then nothing.
