Yes, we had a long conversation with Bruce. Stray interrupts on x86 were
the only case found, where some other text, unrelated to event source
name, printed before "irqX". I would prefer not to have such special
cases instead of trying to handle them all.

With more people objecting now, despite my arguments, I'll have to obey.
But I still don't think that attempts to parse unformatted string is a
good idea.
