Fortunately... since kernel HZ changed to 1000Hz, I have about two these spurious interrupts delivered to the CPU on my A7V each second. Fortunately they are always really spurious, not misdelivered other interrupts, but seeing values like 10000 in ERR field in /proc/interrupts is something new to me ;-) Maybe VIA or AMD should really clarify what's the problem.
