Subject: poll() blocking

I saw some time ago some discussion about poll(). This is may question
(if it remembers anyone a known issue):

A driver poll_wait()s hardware and wants to raise an interrupt on hardware
change.

It works on 2.2 SMP but locks in 2.4 SMP. Works on 2.4 UP.

Is any SMP issue with poll ?

Thanks.
