SMP and UP are much the same.

Workload is `make -j3 bzImage', the measured time
is from entry to an ISR to execution of the userspace
process. The histogram has 10 microsecond resolution.

SMP
===
0:165601 10:17192 20:12769 30:33220 40:59318
50:60814 60:42915 70:20949 80:8124 90:2590
100:944 110:397 120:211 130:96 140:51
150:41 160:36 170:24 180:21 190:15
200:14 210:12 220:13 230:7 240:11
250:6 260:3 270:4 280:10 290:6
300:5 310:3 320:3 330:6 340:1
350:1 370:1 400:1 620:1

Total samples: 425436

So on SMP, latency is < 10 microseconds 165601/425436 = 39% of
the time.

UP

200:29 210:12 220:26 230:10 240:8
250:6 260:2 300:1

Total samples: 540461

In other words:
