This number is a clue because after every 100,000 interrupts for a
particular IRQ the kernel checks how many of them were handled. If this
is less than 100 then it disables the IRQ. So I suspect one of these
devices is misbehaving, or its driver is not handling interrupts
correctly. Is 'pppp0' actually an Ethernet device that you're using for
PPPoE? If so, what model of network card is it?

[...]
They are assigned by the BIOS. You may be able to configure this in
BIOS setup.
