Yes, this is the original thought I want to express on the bugzilla. On an
ideal environment, without irq balance, all vector_irq should own same
values, say, 0xffffffff. So when one CPU is off-lined, your patch will
considers no places to contain these to-be-migrated irqs but the fact is
they are shared on different CPUs. So if we can answer this question,
the answer will be clear :-).
