POWER9: duplicate interrupt line in /proc/interrupts, kernel problem or userspace problem?

Hi,

I have two lines starting with "LOC:" in /proc/interrupts, one with a 
comment "Local timer interrupts for timer event device", the other 
"Local timer interrupts for others".

This makes collectd unhappy, because it uses the first column as a 
unique identifier.

Is this column supposed to be unique? (i.e. is this a kernel bug, or 
should collectd expect this?)
