I see this as a first step for the BSP to support Interrupt affinity. The rtems_interrupt_{set,get}_affinity() will change the default IRQ2CPU mapping and move already installed interrupts to a 
specific CPU set. With this patch the default mapping does not have to route all IRQs to CPU0 from the start.
