You're right. But that still can be handled in irq_force_complete_move()
with a single unconditional invocation in migrate_one_irq():

	cpu = smp_processor_id();
	if (!vector || (apicd->cur_cpu != cpu && apicd->prev_cpu != cpu))
		goto unlock;

because there are only two cases when a cleanup is required:

   1) The outgoing CPU is the current target

   2) The outgoing CPU was the previous target

No?

Thanks,
