Interrupts are now processed as kernel threads.  Press "H" (or use -H on the
commandline) in top to show each thread on its own line:

without H:
   12 root         18 -60    -     0K   144K WAIT   624.2H  2.39% intr

with H:
   12 root       -32    -     0K   144K WAIT   377.9H  2.78% {swi4: clock}
   12 root       -68    -     0K   144K WAIT   245.9H  0.39% {irq22: fxp1}
