The irq thread has a higher latency than the tasklet.  The performance drop
is measurable on the system I tried:

Before:

# dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 of=/dev/null bs=1G count=1 &
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 4.44502 s, 242 MB/s

After:

# dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 of=/dev/null bs=1G count=1 &
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 4.50898 s, 238 MB/s

So we only want to resort to the thread for the error case.
