I don't see the point. We would have to miscompute the vector that
we are servicing or improperly fill in vector_irq for that to be useful.
The only corner case I can see that might potentially happen is
"apic_in_service_vector() != irq_vector[irq]" and if that is the case
we don't want to migrate, because the precondition that we are in the
irq handler servicing the expected irq isn't true.
Of course someone would have to set IRQ_MOVE_PENDING pretty fast for
that case to hit, it's a tiny hole probably worth closing though.
