 From /var/log/syslog:

 Apr 11 04:22:29 xenserver kernel: [277113.497127] irq 22: nobody cared

 Apr 11 04:22:29 xenserver kernel: [277113.497144] Pid: 0, comm: swapper

 So I assume this is the host/dom0 kernel.


   Yes.

 What device is using IRQ 22?
 Try checking from /proc/interrupts or from lspci.

 Is it a shared IRQ (multiple devices using the same IRQ)?


   IRQ 22 is being shared between the SATA controller and a NIC.

   Both /proc/interrupts and lspci are posted below, I should have mentioned
   as much in my first message.

   Thanks for your response.

    

Is this onboard NIC? Or additional PCI card? Can you move it to a different PCI slot?

It's a PCI NIC.  Unfortunately the other available slots (there are only three on this MB) are being used by the MPEG encoders.  I have a free PCI express slot I could use for a PCIe NIC if necessary.  Whether moving to a PCIe NIC would actually free up an IRQ is hard to say, though for the price of a NIC it is probably worth trying.
