    The NIC drivers should be consuming interrupts based on the number of
    queues they are using, and that is something you can control from the
    command line, eg ethtool IIRC. Usually it defaults to the number of
    CPUs.

    Basically, you want to enable the user to configure the system with a
    user specified reduced number of NIC queues, and we already have way
    to do that.
