Laurent Vivier 7eb514087c powerpc/pseries: Pass MSI affinity to irq_create_mapping()
commit 9ea69a55b3b9a71cded9726af591949c1138f235 upstream.

With virtio multiqueue, normally each queue IRQ is mapped to a CPU.

Commit 0d9f0a52c8 ("virtio_scsi: use virtio IRQ affinity") exposed
an existing shortcoming of the arch code by moving virtio_scsi to
the automatic IRQ affinity assignment.

The affinity is correctly computed in msi_desc but this is not applied
to the system IRQs.

It appears the affinity is correctly passed to rtas_setup_msi_irqs() but
lost at this point and never passed to irq_domain_alloc_descs()
(see commit 06ee6d571f ("genirq: Add affinity hint to irq allocation"))
because irq_create_mapping() doesn't take an affinity parameter.

Use the new irq_create_mapping_affinity() function, which allows to forward
the affinity setting from rtas_setup_msi_irqs() to irq_domain_alloc_descs().

With this change, the virtqueues are correctly dispatched between the CPUs
on pseries.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
