Hi,

I noticed the interrupt rate of my FreeBSD system is very high (~35%) after
upgrade from r279138 to r284205.

To find out which revision cause this problem,
I used a  binary search manner and compiled the kernel 11 times.
Finally I located to r279961, the interruption rate is abnormal since this
revision.

Do you have any idea about this issue?

( I'm temporarily using r279958 kernel with r284205 base system, everything
is fine.)
