[PATCH 1/3] ARCv2: intc: Fix random perf irq disabling in SMP setup

[Vineet Gupta]

As part of fixing another perf issue, observed that after a perf run,
the interrupt got disabled on one/more cores.

| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
|  20:    0      0      0       0  ARCv2 core Intc  20 ARC perf counters
|
| [ARCLinux]# perf record -c 20000 /sbin/hackbench
| Running with 10*40 (== 400) tasks.
|
| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
|  20:    0    522      8    51916  ARCv2 core Intc  20 ARC perf counters
|
| [ARCLinux]# perf record -c 20000 /sbin/hackbench
| Running with 10*40 (== 400) tasks.
|
| [ARCLinux]# cat /proc/interrupts | grep perf
|  20:    0    522      8   104368  ARCv2 core Intc  20 ARC perf counters

Turns out that despite requesting perf irq as percpu, the flow handler
registered was not handle_percpu_irq()

Given that on ARCv2 cores, IRQs < 24 are always private to cpu, we
register the right handler at the very onset.
