5.24. What does ``stray IRQ'' mean?
Stray IRQs are indications of hardware IRQ glitches, mostly from hardware
that removes its interrupt request in the middle of the interrupt request
acknowledge cycle.
One has three options for dealing with this:
* Live with the warnings. All except the first 5 per irq are suppressed
anyway.
* Break the warnings by changing 5 to 0 in isa_strayintr() so that all the
warnings are suppressed.
* Break the warnings by installing parallel port hardware that uses irq 7
and the PPP driver for it (this happens on most systems), and install an ide
drive or other hardware that uses irq 15 and a suitable driver for it.

Where do I find isa_strayintr() to turn off irq7 message?
