Local interrupt controller structures are per-cpu in any architecture.
So, there will be multiple such structures. It is upto the OS to choose
one of them. What is the issue here?

The RISC-V DT code is selecting the one which is corresponding to the boot
cpu. While in ACPI we can choose any one, I think it is better to
follow the DT code to keep it similar and boot cpu is always guaranteed
to be available.

Thanks!
