Subject[patch 09/75] genirq: Do not poll disabled, percpu and timer interrupts
There is no point in polling disabled lines.

percpu does not make sense at all because we only poll on the cpu
we're currently running on. Also polling per_cpu interrupts is racy as
hell. The handler runs without locking so we might get a huge
surprise.

If the timer interrupt needs polling, then we wont get there anyway.
