This mitigation in QAIC is very effective. The same lprnet usecase that
generates 100k IRQs per second (per /proc/interrupts) is reduced to roughly 64
IRQs over 5 minutes while keeping the host system stable, and having the same

Single MSI Mode
---------------
To support this fallback, we allow the case where only one MSI is able to be
allocated, and share that one MSI between MHI and the DBCs. The device detects
when only one MSI has been configured and directs the interrupts for the DBCs
-to the interrupt normally used for MHI. Unfortunately this means that the

interrupt handlers for every DBC and MHI wake up for every interrupt that
arrives; however, the DBC threaded irq handlers only are started when work to be
done is detected (MHI will always start its threaded handler).
Neural Network Control (NNC) Protocol
