We appear to always assign to delta, so this initialization seems
superfluous.

Per this smp_processor_id() usage, preemption is disabled.

Which makes this per_cpu(,cpu) usage somewhat curious. What's wrong with
__this_cpu_read() ?

That whole thing is somewhat hard to read; but its far too late for me
to suggest anything more readable :/

Maybe split the whole thing on irqtype at the very start, instead of the
endless repeated branches?
