No.

If vector 3 is for covering hw queue 12 ~ 15, the vector shouldn't be
shutdown when cpu 14 is offline.

Also I am pretty sure that we don't do this way with managed IRQ. And
non-managed IRQ will be migrated to other online cpus during cpu offline,
so not an issue at all. See migrate_one_irq().


Thanks,
Ming
