Yeah, a down_read() should be enough:)

How about this comments about locking rules?
/*
 * Locks related to IOAPIC hotplug
 * Hotplug side:
 *      ->lock_device_hotplug() //device_hotplug_lock
 *              ->acpi_ioapic_rwsem
 *                      ->ioapic_lock
 * Interrupt mapping side:
 *      ->acpi_ioapic_rwsem
 *              ->ioapic_mutex
 *                      ->ioapic_lock
