Subject: generic irqs: enable polling for disabled screaming irqs
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
