High interrupt load on VIA C3 machine

[Bruce Cran]

I recently upgraded to 7-CURRENT on my VIA EPIA router, and have found 
that there's a constant interrupt load of around 15%.   My dmesg reports 
the CPU as:

CPU: VIA C3 Nehemiah+RNG+AES (533.36-MHz 686-class CPU)
  Origin = "CentaurHauls"  Id = 0x698  Stepping = 8

avail memory = 119701504 (114 MB)

While there's a high interrupt load, vmstat -i doesn't show anything wrong:

irq0: clk                         718003         99

Total                            1765830        245

I had thought of using hwpmc to find out what was happening, but 
unfortunately VIA CPUs aren't supported yet.  Is there another way I can 
find out what's going on?
