Try to assign irq vectors to cpus on the correct node & fall back to global
assignment only if node-local fails. This reduces the chances of
using all of the interrupt vectors of a single cpu.

I may be overlooking something but I don't see the benefit of passing node to target_cpus().
It looks like only 1 place that calls target_cpus() has a valid "node". The other places would
pass -1. In addition, I'm not sure how some of the other subarches (ex., es7000_32) would
use the node number. Many would just ignore it.
