That's not really a good assumption. Not all architectures need
seperate interrupt numbers / descriptors because they can allocate
from a per cpu interrupt space. We really want to handle that here as
well. So we need a flag in the IPI domain which tells us whether that
allocation needs to be weight(desc) or 1.
