Great work Shunsuke, thank you !
Any chance to get this patch reviewed and commited ?

Although Bjoern Zeeb proposed to use a global way to control interrupt
moderation among network drivers, there was no proposition to unify it.
It would be a pity if this patch gets lost in the archives without
being either commited or submited as a PR.
