When we disable a screaming irq we never see it again. If the irq line is shared or if the driver half works this is a real pain. So periodically poll the handlers for screaming interrupts. I use a timer instead of the classic irq poll technique of working off the timer interrupt because when we use the local apic timers note_interrupt is never called (bug?). Further on a system with dynamic ticks the timer interrupt might not even fire unless there is a timer telling it it needs to. I forced this case on my test system with an e1000 nic and my ssh session remained responsive despite the interrupt handler only being called every 10th of a second. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
