I've tried the patch, and the testing went like this:
1) Reboot into fixed kernel => msk0 shows watchdog timeouts.
2) Reboot again => no timeouts, but the interrupt storm is still there.
3) Disable the machine completely for 15 minutes (take out the battery
too; it's a laptop), boot fixed kernel => msk works fine.
4) Reboot one more time => msk still works fine.
5) Reboot into 10-RELEASE kernel => watchdog timeouts.
6) Disable the machine completely for 15 minutes, boot fixed kernel =>
still watchdog timeouts.
7) Disable the machine for 30 minutes, boot fixed kernel => nope, still
doesn't work.

So, there was a success once (step 3), but I was not able to reproduce
it after that. Seems to be random.
