Thank you very much for the explanation! Now I see why to drop the vector_lock
is not an issue.

The above may not work. migrate_one_irq() relies on irq_force_complete_move() to
always reclaim the apicd->prev_vector. Otherwise, the call of
irq_do_set_affinity() later may return -EBUSY.

 807         if (apicd->move_in_progress || !hlist_unhashed(&apicd->clist))
 808                 return -EBUSY;


Or maybe add a flag to control whether to enforce a cleanup in any conditions?
