ARCv2: intc: Fix random perf irq disabling in SMP setup
As part of fixing another perf issue, observed that after a perf run,
the interrupt got disabled on one/more cores.

Turns out that despite requesting perf irq as percpu, the flow handler
registered was not handle_percpu_irq()

Given that on ARCv2 cores, IRQs < 24 are always private to cpu, we
register the right handler at the very onset.

Before Fix
