I have a couple of questions regarding priorities of the softirqs, IRQ
handlers, etc.

With some exceptions, back in 2.6.18 and prior patches the IRQ threads
were prioritized between 50 and 25 and the most of the softirqs were
prioritized at 1? In newer patches it looks like they are all
prioritized at 50?

I was just curious what went into making these choices? I am just trying
to better understand these decisions.

Thanks,
