I tried the same (make omap2plus_defconfig and enabled the above
option), and I do see the interrupts firing on both 4430 and 4460...

/ # cat /proc/interrupts
           CPU0       CPU1
 29:       1023        404       GIC  twd
 33:        401          0       GIC  arm-pmu
 34:          0        441       GIC  arm-pmu


What is your kernel commit ID that you applied the patches on top of?

What board are you using? Blaze, panda, etc, and is it 4430 or 4460?

Cheers
Jon
