The above error indicates that the card is not configured for the right
interrupt.  I don't know why the system has frozen; there are a couple of
possible reasons for that;
 
 - there might be a bug in the kernel that is tickled by your config
 - the card might have generated another (wrong) interrupt and 
   the system has not handled it well.

However, you shouldn't need the PAO patches at all for your setup.
