From: John Lacombe <[email protected]>
Interrupt moderation low threshold value was incorrectly
triggering, indicating that the threshold should be lowered.
The impact was the timer was likely to become 40usecs and get
stuck there. The biggest side effect was too many interrupts
and nonoptimal performance.
