/*
* API called for requesting percpu interrupts - called by each CPU
* - For boot CPU, actually request the IRQ with genirq core + enables
* - For subsequent callers only enable called locally
*
* Relies on being called by boot cpu first (i.e. request called ahead) of
* any enable as expected by genirq. Hence Suitable only for TIMER, IPI
* which are guaranteed to be setup on boot core first.
* Late probed peripherals such as perf can't use this as there no guarantee
* of being called on boot CPU first.
