The NIC drivers should be consuming interrupts based on the number of
queues they are using, and that is something you can control from the
command line, eg ethtool IIRC. Usually it defaults to the number of
CPUs.

Basically, you want to enable the user to configure the system with a
user specified reduced number of NIC queues, and we already have way
to do that.
