I've tested your patch on a
Gigabyte BXD, Dual PII/350 Deschutes [intel 440BX]
APIC Version 17
IO-APIC Version 17
Everything seems fine.
I noticed that if the computer is idle, then there is a strong bias of
the timer interrupts to CPU1 (19,343 interupts on CPU0, 84415 interrupts
on CPU1).
[this bias is also present with 2.2.12]
The bias goes away under load [ie constant flood ping].
