this will break non-x86. Please move this to the x86 early-irq-init 
function instead, and also sync it up with the current NR_IRQS sizing 
macro.

I.e. do not duplicate the numbers but introduce some sort of 
max_nr_irqs(nr_cpus) define that is used to initialize NR_IRQS and also 
used later on to narrow down nr_irqs later on.
