That is indidicating that something on your host is preventing the wctdm24xxp
from being able to service it's interrupt within the time frame. 13 ms of
interrupt latency is very high. The two cases that I normally see that are:
a) Hard drive is operating in some PIO mode and making the interrupt handler
take a very long time. You can normally see this if 'hdparam -t /dev/hda'
(and it's normally hda not sda) takes less than 10 MB/s. I have seen this as a
default mode on some early SSD drives.
b) Your running a debug kernel on a slow / low power system.
I would also recommend updating to 2.5.0-rc2 (which will soon be released as
2.5.0) since there are some improvements in the efficiency of the wctdm24xxp
interrupt handler.
