    serial: 8250, increase PASS_LIMIT · e7328ae1
    Jiri Slaby authored
    With virtual machines like qemu, it's pretty common to see "too much
    work for irq4" messages nowadays. This happens when a bunch of output
    is printed on the emulated serial console. This is caused by too low
    PASS_LIMIT. When ISR loops more than the limit, it spits the message.
    
    I've been using a kernel with doubled the limit and I couldn't see no
    problems. Maybe it's time to get rid of the message now?
