Ok, now I got you. By simply ignoring the virq passed in and only taking
into account the hw irq, this is of course possible.

Please see the attached patch. Does that look better to you? I removed
the cpu_has_ipr() inline function and made it a variable that is used
and initalized from both the DT and the legacy code.
