In addition to the "blocked for more than 120 seconds" errors, I'm also
seeing characters that I'm typing repeat themselves. Reading LKML,
I see concurrent reports of keyboard character repeating, so it's related.

I'm going to upgrade to 9.10 - this 8.10 has too many problems. (The USB
subsystem is also broken for large file transfers to external disks.)
