The interrupt counters this function sums up are all unsigned int
(see irq_cpustat_t). If the sum overflows, so be it: you should
monitor the counter and take note when it wraps around.
Summing up unsigned int values into u64 does not "handle" overflows,
but if any of the individual counters overflows then the computed
sum is inaccurate.
