But in fact currently there is no code which assumes device interrupts
are enabled between cpu_configure(9) and cpu_initclocks(9) in
src/sys/kern/subr_autoconf.c and src/sys/kern/kern_clock.c.
(only MD function around there is cpu_initclocks(9) itself)

There are some architectures which can't disable only clock
interrupt with the sane way (see mips CPU_INT5), but should we
still enable all other interrupts in cpu_configure(9) only
for the assumption?
