Introduce a mechanism to detect and warn about prolonged IRQ handlers.
With a new command-line parameter (irqhandler.duration_warn_us=),
users can configure the duration threshold in microseconds when a warning
in such format should be emitted:
"[CPU14] long duration of IRQ[159:bad_irq_handler [long_irq]], took: 1330 us"
The implementation uses local_clock() to measure the execution duration of the
generic IRQ per-CPU event handler.

Is this a microoptimization -- have you measured what speedup does it
bring? IOW is it worth it instead of cleaner "/ NSEC_PER_USEC"?
Or instead, you could store the diff in irqhandler_duration_threshold_ns
(mind that "_ns") and avoid the shift and div completely.
And what about the wrap? Don't you need abs_diff()?
