check the  cxm.h in the pvr250 port.

i would just start doubling the value until the problem disappears.

if it doesn't, there might me a concurrency/locking problem in the
driver. this could very well be ( i suspect a particular fishy part of
code ).

if this is the case, we need to investigate into that.
