Our workaround is generally similar, but the implementation details are
somewhat different.

Maybe let us look for some comments from maintainer and other people.

Yes, modify of the interrupt affinity will be delayed until the *next*
interrupt eoi handler(in hard_irq context).

This is the difference from x86, which do irq_move_irq in ack handler,
and then transfer the current interrupt to the new CPU without other affect.
