    I just tried intel's latest em driver (3.2.18) with 6 interfaces on a
    4.10 system on a dell 2850 server.
    (E7525 chipset I think)
    The result was the system hanging (couldn't do anything other than enter
    the debugger).
    backtraces showed tight loops in the em interrupt routines.

    Not sure if it's related yet.
