The MIPS GIC driver uses irq_cpu_online() to go and program the
per-CPU interrupts. However, this method iterates over all IRQs
in the system, despite only 3 per-CPU interrupts being of interest.

Let's be terribly bold and do the iteration ourselves. To ensure
mutual exclusion, hold the gic_lock spinlock that is otherwise
taken while dealing with these interrupts.
