Subject: [PATCH] xen/smp: Fix leakage of timer interrupt line for every CPU
 online/offline.

commit 888b65b4bc5e7fcbbb967023300cd5d44dba1950 upstream.

In the PVHVM path when we do CPU online/offline path we would
leak the timer%d IRQ line everytime we do a offline event. The
online path (xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents via
x86_cpuinit.setup_percpu_clockev) would allocate a new interrupt
line for the timer%d.

But we would still use the old interrupt line leading to:

kernel BUG at /home/konrad/ssd/konrad/linux/kernel/hrtimer.c:1261!

 [<ffffffff81666cfd>] ? start_secondary+0x18f/0x1a8

There is also the oddity (timer1) in the /proc/interrupts after
offlining CPU1:

  64:       1121          0  xen-percpu-virq      timer0
  78:          0          0  xen-percpu-virq      timer1
  84:          0       2483  xen-percpu-virq      timer2

This patch fixes it.
