After doing more debugging on this it turns out that this looks like a legacy interrupt coming in. The vector number is always 55, which is legacy IRQ 7 as seen from the PIC. The corresponding IOAPIC interrupt pin is masked and vector 55 is completely unused. More questions than answers. Still investigating. Thanks, tglx
