I have a kludge in ARC port in this subsystem - which I hope you could help clear.

ARC also has a local timer device used for clockevent on each CPU. A one-time
setup_irq() with IRQF_PERCPU - would indeed setup the generic IRQ subsystem - for
making registration effective for all CPUs. However don't you need some per-cpu
magic - say enabling the IRQ at cpu or embedded interrupt controller level -
assuming you starts off with all IRQs disabled (which ARC Linux does).

So we end up using different APIs - request_percpu_irq() as equivalent of
setup_irq() on boot-cpu only and then each CPU calling enable_percpu_irq() to do
the local magic. request_percpu_irq() in turn requires an apriori call to
irq_set_percpu_devid().

Do don't seem to be requiring all of this hence I'm wondering how it works for you!
