Yes, it's linux/kernel/irq/spurious.c:note_interrupt() hitting the
"100000 irqs with 99900 unhandled" limit and killing as a bad IRQ:

        irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
        
        Call Trace: <IRQ> <ffffffff801522c8>{__report_bad_irq+48}
               <ffffffff801524df>{note_interrupt+458}

        handlers:
        [<ffffffff8029555f>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x50)
        [<ffffffff8029555f>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x50)
        Disabling IRQ #16
        
I just don't know why we're getting that flood of unhandled interrupts
on irq16 with xen0 and not on native.

I'll reboot to native and see if there's any obvious difference in the
irq configuration there.
