Hi, Did the mouse lags occurs on all usb port ? Because you lspci return usb1 on IRQ16 and usb2 on IRQ23. So if your problem is related to IRQ16, changing USB port might resolv the problem. If the problem still there, i guess IRQ16 have nothing to do with your mouse lags. Regards, 2015-04-22 17

I did boot with irqpoll, and indeed the unhandled interrupt does not occur, but my understanding is that the irqpoll option is a temporary measure (maybe to get past anotherwise fatal unhandled interrupt), but not a permanent fix. (Because it is inefficient for the kernel to perform such polling?
