The saa7134 failed to deliver a IRQ within the expected timeframe.

Sometimes I/O errors happens with a bad signal.  But in that case the
saa7134 will capture frames again once the signal is better instead of
refusing to do anything until power-cycled.

I've seen several reports on this already, but it didn't happen so far
happens on any of my my systems, I have no idea what this might be ...

Any error messages in the syslog?  Does the card still produce any
IRQs when locked (check /proc/interrupts)?
