[patch 01/46] Add irq flag to disable balancing for an interrupt

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue Jan 23 2007 - 17:01:18 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a flag so we can prevent the irq balancing of an interrupt. Move
the bits, so we have room for more :)

Necessary for the ability to setup clocksources more flexible (e.g. use
the different HPET channels per CPU)
