SubjectRe: [PATCH] interrupt: discover and disable very frequent interrupts

Because I found that some peripherals will send interrupts to the CPU very frequently
in some cases, and the interrupts will be handled correctly, which will cause the CPU
to do nothing but handle the interrupts. At the same time, the RCU system will report
the following logs:

The log is from the process of waking up a sleeping machine,
I left the machine in this state for a night and it successfully woke up,
and then I saw from /proc/interrupts that a GPIO interrupt triggered
more than 13 billion times.

It's a good idea to have it as a debugging feature.


Thanks,
