I think the patch description assumes the first condition
"The two-stage spread is done on same irq vectors"

/*
* Spread on non present CPUs starting from the next vector to be
* handled. If the spreading of present CPUs already exhausted the
* vector space, assign the non present CPUs to the already spread
* out vectors.
*/
if (nr_present >= numvecs)
curvec = firstvec;

But doesn't following condition imply nr_others spread is potentionally
different vector set?

else
curvec = firstvec + nr_present;
