As part of fixing another perf issue, observed that after a perf run,
the interrupt got disabled on one/more cores.
| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
| 20: 0 0 0 0 ARCv2 core Intc 20 ARC perf counters
|
| [ARCLinux]# perf record -c 20000 /sbin/hackbench
| Running with 10*40 (== 400) tasks.
|
| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
| 20: 0 522 8 51916 ARCv2 core Intc 20 ARC perf counters

| [ARCLinux]# perf record -c 20000 /sbin/hackbench
| Running with 10*40 (== 400) tasks.

| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
| 20: 0 522 8 104368 ARCv2 core Intc 20 ARC perf counters
Turns out that despite requesting perf irq as percpu, the flow handler
registered was not handle_percpu_irq()
Given that on ARCv2 cores, IRQs < 24 are always private to cpu, we
register the right handler at the very onset.
