Apparently, for some reason, e1000_intr decided it's not
interesting IRQ or somehow wrong or not for that NIC.  I
dunno.  But something fishy is going on with IRQs here.

It looks they are actually the same thing, but happens with
different devices and/or IRQs.  Either spurious, or unwanted,
or unrecognized or somesuch IRQ which is not recognized by
the irq handler, which results in disabling that IRQ by the
kernel, which is a bad thing (In your case it works because
e1000 works in 2 modes, interrupts and polling).

Unfortunately, no idea.  I don't know neither kernel nor kvm
internals.

Can you share your findings?  I don't know other debian bugs which
are similar to this one.

Thanks!
