This is a known problem with this. Some interrupt controlers are funny
and do funny things when an interrupt is masked, but interrupts enabled.
They route the interrupt to the wrong interrupt line. The only reason that
vanilla doesn't show it, is that vanilla does the interrupt handler
when the interrupt is triggered, so it has no need to mask. RT on the
other hand, runs interrupts in threaded context, which triggers this
little quirk because we mask the interrupt. For some strange reason, the
interrupt controller will trigger the interrupt for another interrupt, if
that interrupt line is masked.
To prove this is the problem, boot with noapic in the kernel command line.
1) the problem should disappear.
2) (I'm betting) you see that the eth and EMU10K1 share the same
interrupt line.
I see from the back trace that this is i386. We have a workaround for this
on x86_64. Jon Masters has been working on better solutions too.
