When using kvm with a serial console, the serial driver will print out
"too much work for irq4" on any heavy activity (ie vi on a file repainting
the terminal). This message is entirely spurious, as output continues to
work fine. Remove the message as it corrupts screen output and is far too
easy to trigger.
