That may be chipset dependent, I don't think all chipsets have the
ability to distribute the interrupts like that. Round-robin interrupt
distribution for a given handler isn't optimal for performance anyway
since it causes the relevant cache lines for the interrupt handler to
be ping-ponged between the different CPUs.
