[Virtual-pkg-base-maintainers] Bug#716940: base: Error "Disabling IRQ #16"

[Mathieu Dutour Sikiric]

Package: base
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
Having the system go idle after 10 minutes. Problem happens after I put
the system back.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
Using linux boot option "irqpoll". It was ineffective.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
The following "dmesg" output shows what happens:
