hm.  I'd be suspecting
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.21-rc7/2.6.21-rc7-mm2/broken-out/add-irqf_irqpoll-flag-common-code.patch
and
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.21-rc7/2.6.21-rc7-mm2/broken-out/add-irqf_irqpoll-flag-on-x86_64.patch

But because x86_64 doesn't implement IRQ_PER_CPU it's hard to see how we
got into note_interrupt as a result of that patch.

Adding the `noirqdebug' boot option would be interesting, perhaps.
