Interrupt Throttle Flow Diagram
For cases where the 82574 is connected to a small number of clients, it is desirable to
fire off the interrupt as soon as possible with minimum latency. For these cases, when
the EITR counter counts down to zero and no interrupt event has happened, then the
EITR counter is not reset but stays at zero. Thus, the next interrupt event triggers an
interrupt immediately. That scenario is illustrated as Case B as follows.
