The command stream put into a FIFO has a certain packet format.
The pusher interrupt says the given stream is corrupt, the format
is broken.

This is either a code bug (e.g. BEGIN_RING with incorrect number of
following commands), or (as in this case apparently) data
corruption.

That's all I think I know.
