Data Softlockup detected on cpu#0

hi everybody,
I am working on Linuxdevicedrivers in kernel 2.6.My driver is for a HDLC transceiver chip.
The problem is driver is not getting initialized properly.It is throwing one bug saying
BUG:softlockup detected on cpu#0
which we see in /var/log/messages
This is the first i am getting this error. How to sort out this.
Is it because of huge amount of memory allocated for the driver or something else.
It would be a great help if somebody helps in sorting out this.
Thanks in advance
sriram
