[PATCH] x86-64: Simplify the vector allocator.
There is no reason to remember a per cpu position of which vector to try. Keeping a global position is simpler and more likely to result in a global vector allocation even if I don't need or require it. For level triggered interrupts this means we are less likely to acknowledge another cpus irq, and cause the level triggered irq to harmlessly refire. This simplification makes it easier to only access data structures of online cpus, by having fewer special cases to deal with. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
