not sure what ticks have to do with anything but ok ;)

if we have this, we need to put a bit of glue in the backend that
tracks (per cpu I suppose) the shortest expected interrupt, which
the C state code then queries.
(and in that regard, it does not matter if shortest expected is
computed via heuristic on a per irq basis, or passed in).

mapping an irq to a cpu is not a 100% science (since interrupts can
move in theory), but just assuming that the irq will happen on the same
CPU it happened last time is more than good enough.
