I'm pretty sure this is different.  Older virtio_console code ignored
interrupts and polled, and use a heuristic to back off on polling (this was
because we used the generic "hvc" infrastructure which hacked support).

You'll find a delay on the first keystroke after idle, but none on the
second.

Hope that helps,
