Please check the patch.

[PATCH] x86_64: interrupt array size should be aligned to NR_VECTORS
interrupt array is referred for idt vectors instead of NR_IRQS, so change size
to NR_VECTORS - FIRST_EXTERNAL_VECTOR. Also change to static.

Yep I missed this optimization opportunity :)

Next time.

You did a great job to clean up the irq_vector mapping.

Yep and created many new optimization and clean up opportunities...
Because I didn't take everything to it's full logical conclusion :)

Just enough to make everything architecture specific.
