Indeed. What I'm thinking of is what normally release_old_vec() would
do (of which only desc->arch.used_vectors updating would appear to be
relevant, seeing the CPU's going offline). The other one I was thinking
of, updating vector_irq[], likely is also unnecessary, again because
that's per-CPU data of a CPU going down.
