>Description:
The "audioamd" driver seems to return completely wild interrupt counts.
For instance, on my machine "vmstat -i" claims:

audioamd0 intr                       39530878992384 5135881381

This is after cat'ing a <8 KB file to /dev/audio.  Before that, the counts
read zero.

>How-To-Repeat:
$ vmstat -iv
[ audioamd0 should show 0 ]
$ cat /usr/bin/id > /dev/audio
[ noise ]
$ vmstat -iv
[ audioamd0 shows stupidly-high number ]
