* Some buggy driver might not realize that an interrupt came from its
  device.
* Some buggy device might raise an interrupt without telling the driver
  that it needs attention.
* Some buggy device might raise a wrong interrupt.  (This might include
  devices that generate a PCI interrupt although they are configured for
  MSI.)
* Some buggy interrupt controller might be doing 'interesting' things.

This looks like a bug in the e1000 hardware or software.
