interrupts run crazy on 2.6.28+

This actually sounds vaguely like an i915 bug that we thought was
fixed but may still be ailing some people. For some reason the GPU
goes crazy asserting interrupts. It seems that MSI might fix the issue
although I think MSI is still universally disabled in Rawhide. It
seems strange that you aren't seeing slow rendering as well, however.
The bug is #466575
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466575).
