It seems that installing the rtirq-init package is not enough, one has to manually
change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="threadirqs"
in /etc/default/grub
and then do sudo update-grub
rtirq was, and still is for that matter, posed for the real-time kernel PREEMPT_RT branch of the Linux kernel (check https://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page; linux-rt-user at vger.kernel.org maillist; kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/; etc.)
most of that work, as it boiled down to ground way more than a decade old, got sneaked in the main vanilla so called "Linus" kernel ever since somewhere v2.6.x, I don't recall precisely; but the most important part was/is certainly the "threadirqs" kernel boot parameter that makes it (rtirq that is) accessible to the masses--and that's what you already know ;)
re. rtirq install
yes, you're totally correct, congratulations ;)
