We don't need to wait for both cpu_callin_map (The code above yours)
any more.

Hmmm... the bad thing is that some board enable irq more early than
->smp_finish(), I have sent patches for that (by moving irq enable
to smp_finish() and delaying smp_finish()).
Please check patch#0001~patch#0004 in
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mips&m=133758022710973&w=2

We can just remove local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() like:
