Double/Tripple lan0 entries in /proc/interrupts

Hello All,

after getting kernel panics with the mm-patches, I've just patched the kernel 2.6.17-rc4 only with the latest appropriate git-acpi patch. Question #1: Is this a valid option, to patch the kernel like that? (If YES -> Next Question)
Question #2: Is it bad to have two lan0 entries after a fresh boot in /proc/interrupts, although there is just only one NIC in my system? Question #3: After suspend (S3) and wake up the system via PowerButton, I have three lan0 in /proc/interrupts. Is this even worse? Question #4: Could this be an indicator for having problems with resuming from S3 via WOL (magic packet)?

With one older kernel (2.6.17-rc1) I've found a constellation where I at least could WOL the system from S3 up to three times, the forth time it died. The same kernel-config doesn't work here at all.

Regards,

Andreas.
