OK, I missed that.

According to the trace the 'irq' is soft ('s'). I couldn't find the
code path from the idle loop to softirq but so maybe this is a bug. Is
it possible that in some cases the arch irq entry does not get
identified as a hard irq or traced and then the subsequent tick code
thinks it's running in a softirq and behaves differently? I could add
more tracing around irq entry.

Can you explain?

No, I said the opposite. They use the same irq number but they're each
wired to their own cpu, and there's no way for them to fire on the
wrong cpu.
