Yes, looks like init_IRQ().
Here's output of kernel boot (some parts cut):

INIT IRQ
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer at virtual address 00000000
Current->tss.cr3=0010100, %cr3=0010100
*pde=00000000
Oops=0000
...
Process swapper (PID: 0, Process nr: 0 ...
...
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task!
In swapper task - not syncing

I'll look into init_IRQ (if I understand anything about it).
