Revert the patches that were fixing the probing of interrupts due
to reports of interrupt stroms on some systems

Can you explain how reverting is going to fix the issue?

The reverts fix 'the interrupt storm issue' that they are causing on 
some systems but don't fix the issue with the interrupt mode not being 
used. I was hoping Jerry would get access to a system faster but this 
didn't seem to be the case. So sending these patches seemed the better 
solution than leaving 5.4.x with the problem but going back to when it 
worked 'better.'

This is wrong way to move forward. The root cause must be identified
first and then decide actions like always in any situation.
