Ravikiran G Thirumalai c3508f8f34 x86_64: Avoid too many remote cpu references due to /proc/stat 
Too many remote cpu references due to /proc/stat.

On x86_64, with newer kernel versions, kstat_irqs is a bit of a problem.
On every call to kstat_irqs, the process brings in per-cpu data from all
online cpus.  Doing this for NR_IRQS, which is now 256 + 32 * NR_CPUS
results in (256+32*63) * 63 remote cpu references on a 64 cpu config.
/proc/stat is parsed by common commands like top, who etc, causing lots
of cacheline transfers

This statistic seems useless.  Other 'big iron' arches disable this.

AK: changed to remove for all SMP setups
AK: add comment
