eth1/e100 is what I'm using to get into the Internet so it's working 
correctly.

According to lspci -v I have two devices using IRQ 18:

00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation Cougar Point SMBus Controller (rev 04)
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 844d
        Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 18
        Memory at fb624000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
        I/O ports at f000 [size=32]
        Kernel driver in use: i801_smbus
        Kernel modules: i2c-i801

and

08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100 (rev 10)
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device 0070
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
        Memory at fb231000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        I/O ports at c080 [size=64]
        Memory at fb200000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
        Expansion ROM at fb220000 [disabled] [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
        Kernel driver in use: e100
        Kernel modules: e100

According to /proc/interrupts only e100 module claims this interrupt:

I will try to reboot with irqpoll a bit later however before I try it I'd
be very grateful to know what exactly this option does/if it affects
performance/stability/etc and why it's not used/enabled by default.
