OK well I set all IRQ threads to SCHED_OTHER except the soundcard, which
is SCHED_FIFO, and I still get a LOT of xruns, compared to zero xruns
over tens of millions of cycles with T3.

rlrevell@mindpipe:~$ for p in `ps auxww | grep IRQ | grep -v grep | awk
'{print $2}'`; do chrt -p $p ;done
pid 647's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 647's current scheduling priority: 0
pid 655's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 655's current scheduling priority: 0
pid 678's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 678's current scheduling priority: 0
pid 693's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 693's current scheduling priority: 0
pid 831's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 831's current scheduling priority: 0
pid 835's current scheduling policy: SCHED_FIFO  <-- soundcard irq
pid 835's current scheduling priority: 90

Here is the dmesg output.  It looks like the problem could be related to
jackd's printing from the realtime thread.  But, this has to be the
kernel's fault on some level, because with an earlier version I get no
xruns.
