Subject: x86: Eliminate irq_mis_count counted in arch_irq_stat
From: Li Fei <fei.li@xxxxxxxxx>
commit f7b0e1055574ce06ab53391263b4e205bf38daf3 upstream.
With the current implementation, kstat_cpu(cpu).irqs_sum is also
increased in case of irq_mis_count increment.
So there is no need to count irq_mis_count in arch_irq_stat,
otherwise irq_mis_count will be counted twice in the sum of
/proc/stat.
