Some interrupts are always zero and that is expected since they occur
very rarely and are mostly error indications. Don't print them by
default.

"MCE" -  "Machine check exceptions"
"NMI" -  "System Reset interrupts"

Print them if they occur once. Maintain a bitmap to know which
interrupts are to be printed.

Time taken to read /proc/interrupts 1000 times.
Base and v6 details can be found in cover-letter.
Base            :  103us
v6              :   63us
v6+patch 1+2    :   57us
v6+patch 1+2+3  :   54us

Patch 3 shows an additional 5% gain compared to patch 1+2. So it does
make sense to print them only if they are ever set.

Note: Since /proc/interrupts depend on kconfig and arch dependent,
userspace tools don't make explicit assumptions.
