This is bad.

irq 0, it can not work.

Again, bad.


Check /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and look for
anything named irq. Here are some suggestions:

acpi=noirq
irqpoll
pci=biosirq
pci=usepirqmask
pci=routeirq

Check for success by reviewing dmesg and confirming that devices do
get valid IRQs assigned. You can also confirm this with:

cat /proc/interrupts

There you'll also see if interrupts actually arrive as they should.
