Yee, that is what I do at first. But I noticed that:

void __init set_smp_ipi_range(int ipi_base, int n)
     for (i = 0; i < nr_ipi; i++) {
         err = request_percpu_irq(ipi_base + i, ipi_handler,
                                  "IPI", &cpu_number);
         WARN_ON(err);
         ipi_desc[i] = irq_to_desc(ipi_base + i);

If request_percpu_irq return a error, I not sure if ipi_desc[i] makes sense.
