I do not think this patch is going to work, there are CPU notifiers that
allows you to listen for events (CPU_ONLINE, CPU_DEAD...) as to when
(re)configuration of an interrupt controller can become necessary in
other areas of the kernel.

drivers/irqchip/irq-gic*.c contains code that deals with this for instance.
