Subject: Adjust the interrupt storm handling code to better handle a storm. 
 When a storm is detected, enter "storming" mode which throttles the interrupt
 source such that the handlers are run once every clock tick.  Previously we
 allowed a full set of storm_threshold interations through the handler before
 going back to sleep.  Also, this currently will intentionally exit storming
 mode once a second to see if the storm has passed.
