[PATCH v2 1/7] genirq: Fix the documentation of request_percpu_irq

[Gregory CLEMENT]

From: Maxime Ripard <maxime.ripard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The documentation of request_percpu_irq is confusing and suggest that the
interrupt is not enabled at all, while it is actually enabled on the local
CPU.

Clarify that.
